Tom Stockli’s car was stuck in a snow bank and with a big storm moving in the closest shelter is Greg’s cabin. The men settle down to wait out the storm and soon the attraction they feel to each other is getting hot enough to melt the snow. Greg is not looking for a vacation hook-up or any kind of relationship but it’s been over a year since his last boyfriend and Tom is hard to resist. As the saying goes, ‘resistance is futile’ and before the day is over the men are hitting the sheets instead of the slopes.
This was a quick read, about 16 pages without counting extra non-story pages, and takes place in just a day’s time. It’s basically the story of two guys meeting, recognizing their attraction and acting on it. There is a HFN ending as they find they live and work relatively close to each other and so there is talk of getting together again after their vacation is over.
Given the shortness of the story there is no character growth to speak of and the plot is very basic but it is well written and entertaining. The sex scene was hot although it did give me pause as there is no mention of using condoms in the scene.
Overall I enjoyed this quick sexy story.
