The Outlaw There's not much left in the world, only survival and he has become very adapt at staying alive. He's learn to fight and thrive in this new, violent time. Some say it's the end of the world, but he chooses to keep living. The small town left standing refers to him as The Outlaw, fitting really as he tries to destroy their society. He is determined to bring the town down and keep the homophobes from killing innocent gay men. It's a cause near to his heart since he is gay. All that hatred and revenge changes when he sees a scrawny new guy in town. Rian is sexy and kind of goofy. He tries to warm Rian that the town isn't what it seems but that turns into a wild kiss that has both men breathless. Can the Outlaw convince Rian to leave the this town before it's too late?
ground. Rian finally took a breath but kept still. What did he want? The guy wanted him for something. First at the window, now here, maybe Outlaw was following him. “You can’t trust them, mate.” Rian jerked as if he was shot. Outlaw spoke a full sentence. He had an Australian accent that made its words almost like very satisfied purrs. Rian didn’t speak. In the past, silence usually went further than attitude. Beside he was too damn scared to speak and too horny to say anything useful. Rian always went stupid around hot guys. Outlaw took a single step forward. His clothes clung to his very fine body like a second skin. “They’re dangerous.” He frowned. “I’m not going to hurt you. I’m trying to warn you.” Rian nodded, his heart pounding in his chest. “Are you listening to me?” Outlaw took another step forward. Rian was both aroused and afraid. He moved away but the back of his legs slammed against the truck. The world seemed to stop. Birds silenced, breeze ceased and Outlaw took two more steps forward. He seemed to be studying Rian. Those eyes roamed Rian’s body and finally stopped on his lips. Rian swallowed hard. He still couldn’t speak as Outlaw inched even closer. Their clothes almost touch. His handsome face was only inches from Rian. “I want to keep you safe.” Outlaw whispered. The words were lost to Rian’s ears. He could feel the heat from Outlaw’s body and smell the gentle scent of pine and fresh water. Rian could hardly breathe as the sexy bad boy advanced. Their lips were less than an inch apart. Breaths mingled to become one and then those plump perfect lips touched his. Rian exhaled, his pulse beating wildly in his neck as the touch turned into a kiss. It was tame, sweet, and even romantic. A shotgun went off. It startled Rian into gasping and jerking backward. Outlaw looked at him hard, licked his lips and ran into the wild fields of apples. He could hardly breath. Rian’s lips tingled like he’d sucked cock for hours.

My favorite is “I want to keep you safe.” Outlaw whispered. You can just tell there is going to be some insane chemistry between the characters! Thank you so much for being a part of the hop! I also appreciate the question. Everyone is asking your favorite hero trait and while I love to talk about the alpha male, I also like variety! [email protected]

I liked this line (well, two sentences really): "Rian jerked as if he was shot. Outlaw spoke a full sentence." I loved his reaction and surprise. Not only does it convey his amazement, but also shows he's gotten to the enigmatic man who sets his heart racing. Nicely done, James.

The line about plump perfect lips (if I'm feeling genteel) or his lips tingling (if I'm in a naughtier mood). Both very evocative, for different reasons!
