When Loren signed on with OTR truck driver training, they didn’t explain the hazard of becoming stranded in the middle of nowhere. However, sometimes being left behind can lead to blessings or in Loren’s case, the leather-clad man of his dreams.

Bad Dawg is a member of the Prairie Dawgs, and fresh out of heartbreak hotel. His past love interest had other ideas for where he would play hide-the-salami. He may be a vegan when it comes to consumption but when it comes to carnal desires, BD wants nothing but Grade A meat to fulfill those needs. Moreover, if he hasn’t missed his guess, Loren has a prize just aching for BD to unwrap.

The men hit it off nicely, and believe this is just a one-night stand. Are they right or has BD finally found his mate?

Lena Austin dresses romance up in leather and places it firmly on a '69 Shovelhead in Bad Dawg. I could feel the vibrations coursing through my body, and if the adult toy industry could manufacture it, Duracell would have to create a stronger battery. Loren is a man who knows his own mind. Seeing BD and his motorcycle gave him hope to fulfill a few fantasies. BD notices something in Loren, besides the surprise behind zipper number one, and wants to take the time to get to know him. I knew from their first moments of eye contact that every good intention to be neighborly would fly out of the window. The attraction was molten hot, and wouldn’t wait for them to get to know each other. Bad Dawg definitely brings us some erotic moments that would incite bathroom renovations, but it also delivers a message about love, hope, acceptance, and lending a helping hand. I loved BD’s giving spirit and his openness. He was just the type of man Loren deserved. From the way the story ended, I can only hope we will see BD and Loren in the near future.

You're welcome Lena! Sooooo.... are we going to see more of BD and Loren? There's something in the barn I'm waiting for them to use *snort* :-)

LOL!! As it happens, I'm in the midst of brainstorming Loren's return to Barkus. Seems he left something behind he needs very much. And you're right. There's quite a bit that needs tending there in the barn. (wink) Hmmm...you just gave me an idea.

Oh for real? *rubbing hands together* I would love to some adventurous and creative adventures mixed with fresh smell of hay. Yes Loren has a precious gift he needs to pickup, I see the claim ticket hanging out his pocket. :-)
