When he comes across a buck naked man unconscious near a spring, his compassion and his libido are equally aroused.

Dalton Hicks slowly regains his memory while sharing a fire and a bedroll with the most generous man he’s ever met. Dalton’s longings for acceptance and his cravings for passion are answered in Everett’s arms, but Dalton has a secret, one that will cost him everything if revealed. Faced with a life or death situation, Dalton must choose between keeping Everett alive, but letting him go, or allowing death to take the man of his dreams.
