This is a very short story, an epilogue to, EARTH SCENTS BOOK ONE, as well as a prologue to book two, RISING HEAT, a male/male romance coming soon.

Jade has been away from Adam for weeks. When she got the phone call about her big brother's life-threatening injury, she dropped everything and flew home. That left Adam plenty of time to write some especially sappy songs for his country western band, and come up with a great way to surprise her with a visit.

Lance Graham never imagined he'd have to start his life over again. He played it straight while on the police force, but now he's lost most of his right leg,his K-9 partner, and probably his career as a cop. When his sister's best friend Dean shows up in the Graham's little home town, it only drives home the fact that Lance's personal life is in shambles, thanks to his own decision to remain in the closet.
