Kory Steed

Through Roscoe's Eyes Kory Steed

When Reggie sets out to continue his mother's mission to feed the homeless, he never anticipated how much a chance encounter with an injured man, his small, gaunt dog, Roscoe, and sick, young cat, Cinders, would change the course of his life. With a winter storm approaching, Reggie makes a snap decision and brings the wary trio to his estate home to be cared for and nursed back to health. Reggie learns the man's name is Calvin, he was a quartermaster in the army, and he was dishonorably discharged prior to the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell". Taking pity on the man and in need of someone to help him run his mother's foundation, Reggie offers Calvin a job. With few prospects in sight to find shelter for his small family during the peak of winter, Calvin reluctantly accepts Reggie's offer on a trial basis, but that it is only one of many trials both men will face. Eventually, yearnings Reggie and Calvin had buried deep inside begin to fan the nearly extinguished embers of passion in both men. With Calvin drawing emotional support from Roscoe and Cinders, and Reggie discovering an ally in his beloved housekeeper, both men explore their newfound attraction, edging them toward the precipice of an ecstasy neither could have imagined. Will the discovery of a past connection between the two men's families be enough to bring them together? Or will sinister, outside forces and an unexpected loss of life shatter the bonds between both families and both men for good?
