Smutterday - First Steps

As promised - here is a smutty excerpt from First Steps. This reprint from Dreamspinner came out on Wednesday.

First Steps

Abandoned by his partner in the wilds of Alaska, single gay dad Peter Boone is at the end of his rope. He has screaming twin babies to care for and far too much time without adult companionship. To make matters worse, Alaska’s harsh and gloomy winter is about to close in on him, his twins, and their small, rundown cabin.

Park Ranger Chad Bristow likes living alone in Alaska, but after visiting Peter to warn him about an encroaching forest fire, he starts to wonder what life would be like with someone like Peter. Winter’s severity worries Chad, and he believes Peter and his twins won’t make it, so he offers to take them into his home. Soon Chad realizes that the attraction he experienced for Peter on their first meeting has the potential to heat up beyond his being a good Samaritan. Now all he has to do is convince Peter that they can do more than just keep each other warm.

smutty excerpt:

Peter leaned in, nuzzling Chad’s collarbone, fingers splaying out over his skin.

His chuckle turned into a moan. “Man, you’ve got a sweet touch.”

“Your skin feels good.” The words were whispered over his shoulder, the soft brush of Peter’s tongue maddening.

“So does your tongue, Peter.”

God, it was likely to short him out. He forced himself to return the touches, to get Peter’s shirt off. Peter purred a little, fingers sliding over Chad’s belly, stroking his skin. Chad tilted Peter’s head, bringing their mouths back together again.

Chad sat on the bed, and Peter crawled into his lap, straddled his thighs, their bellies sliding together. Moaning, Chad pressed his tongue in deeper. He could get used to this. Peter was hard, hips grinding a little faster, hands in Chad’s hair. It felt good to know he was inciting that heat, that need.

His own prick was pushing against his pants, trying to push out of his zipper.

“Mmm… too many clothes….”

Peter nibbled on his bottom lip, then sucked it. “You got that right.”

Unfortunately, getting rid of their pants was going to take more concentration than Chad had to spare. He was too busy with having his mind blown by Peter’s hands and mouth. Peter rubbed his nipples, tweaked them gently, then explored his ribs, petted him, stroked his belly button. Chad’s hips were moving, pushing up against Peter, each new touch making him moan, cock throbbing.

Peter opened Chad’s fly and began stroking his prick, just brushing it as it was freed to rub against Peter’s clothes.

“Shit!” He humped up into that touch, hips bucking at the touch of fingers not his own.

“Oh, fuck.” Peter’s fingers wrapped around his cock, rubbing, pumping.

“You don’t slow down I’m gonna. Oh shit, gonna come, Peter.” It was like lightning in his pants.

“You want me to take the edge off or slow down?” Peter’s thumb slid over the slit of Chad’s cock.

He bucked again. “Edge.” Please don’t stop, not right now.

“Yeah.” Those lips fastened on his throat, licking and sucking, Peter’s thumb driving him mad.

“Peter!” He cried out, spunk splashing up over Peter’s hand as the pleasure shot through him.

Peter purred, kept petting him through the aftershocks, kept stroking. Kept him hard and needing and right there open Peter’s jeans, finding the hot cock that spilled from the open zipper.

“Oh….” Peter whimpered, shivered for him, mouth open on his skin.

First Steps now available!

I'm so pleased that Dreamspinner Press agreed to reprint a number of my earlier books that had gone out of print and the first one is a great one. First Steps is one of my first that features men with kids. And I absolutely love the cover Dreamspinner did for it. One of my favorite covers, for sure.

I've included an excerpt below. A non-smutty one as I've got a smutty one planned for Smutterday.

Excerpt:

Prologue

The cabin was quiet.

Well, quiet was one hell of a strong term, with Ellen screaming at the top of her lungs and Daniel sobbing hysterically while Peter fixed their bottles, but at least it wasn’t cars and trucks and fire engines and neighbors and stuff.

“Hush, now, you two. Daddy’s hurrying. Ellie, you’re not starving. Danny-boy, breathe. The bottles are coming.”

God, he was tired. Ginnie, his surrogate, had offered to terminate one, when they’d found out two were coming, but he’d wanted his babies, had paid her all his inheritance to carry them, wouldn’t give them up.

Still, he should have saved enough for a nanny.

He put the nipples on the bottles and went over to the crib where they were carrying on, fat little legs kicking furiously, hands reaching for him. Screaming stopped at the sight of the food.

Beasts.

Spoiled beasts.

Beautiful, sweet, spoiled beasts.

He laughed, relaxing, enjoying the sudden silence, the look of pleasure in those pretty china-blue eyes.

“See, there? Daddy promised not to make you two starve.”

The trees cast huge shadows over the little yard into the huge bay window, and the sky looked fabulous—violets and pinks and blues. God, it was beautiful here. “Oh, sweets. I want to let you grow up somewhere like this. Somewhere green and alive and not concrete. Somewhere you can go outside.”

Peter had been in the mountains for three weeks, searching for something, someplace he and the babies could afford. His place in the city was tiny.

Falling apart.

Expensive.

Not suitable for babies.

He chuckled at himself, picking Ellie up to burp because she always ate faster. Burke and Allan and the guys wouldn’t recognize him now—his hair was scraggly, he had on old jeans and a diaper on his shoulder, and he smelled like baby powder and…

God, he loved his babies.

More than fucking, more than parties, more than the city. Hell, more than writing, and that was saying something.

Allan had stopped by before they’d headed out, all concerned eyes and frowning and “are you sure about this weird baby thing, man.” They’d shared some hard words, harsh ones—Allan called him a sell-out, a breeder, and he’d told Allan that, at some point, life had to be about more than fucking someone, over or otherwise.

The fight had gotten louder and uglier, and then Ellen started fussing—sweet little love, so aware, so sensitive—and he’d been derailed, turning his back on his former fuckbuddy, going to get his daughter and his son.

His family.

Ellie burped about the time Daniel started wriggling, and he settled Ellen back in her crib before putting Danny over his knees.

Yeah, he needed to find somewhere for them, somewhere warm and safe. Somewhere where his sweets would remember making snowmen and picking flowers and playing.

He needed that for them, and damn it, he’d find it.

“Come on, Danny. Burp and we’ll all lie down together and rest.”

Ellen kicked, her movements setting the music off on her little mobile, her happy laugh filling the cabin.


Chapter One

When the fire warning went up to high, Chad got into the jeep and made a tour of the houses that bordered the forest. He put the No Fire signs up at all the campsites and talked to all the hikers and campers he ran into, pressing home the point.

There hadn’t been a fire yet on his watch, and he planned to keep it that way.

He pulled the jeep into the last house. The old Washer place. It had sat empty the last couple of years, but supposedly someone was renting it for a while, looking to buy. They didn’t get too many long-term renters up this way; most folks were summer visitors only, happier leasing and not having to worry about the place in winter.

Straightening his hat, Chad went to the front door and knocked sharply.

He didn’t hear anything and was about to knock again when the door opened, revealing a man dressed in a pair of boxer briefs. Red-eyed, hair curling wildly, the man looked sort of like a hoot owl, all blinky and dazed.

“Shh! You’ll wake them, and then I’ll have to strangle you.”
