Overview

Out of the Cage: Sometimes love needs a little coaxing to grow. Stake Dolan has worked as a firefighter for almost a decade. He knows he's loud, brash, and occasionally abrasive, not that he tries to be. Sometimes, he just blurts out stuff without thinking. His thoughtless words get him in trouble, and the chief orders him to lead the clean-up of some of the local hiking trailheads. At one of them, Dolan rescues a kitten stuck in a tree and meets Cecil Rochette. The friendly man makes a pass at him, but Dolan quickly shuts him down. While he knows a few of his fellow firefighters are gay, he is not. Still, while he doesn't know why, there's something about the guy that arouses him. When Cecil keeps popping up in his path, interrupting his life, he begins to wonder what it'd be like to give in to the mischievous man's advances. Will doing something so different be worth the price, especially when no one has been able to tolerate his mouth for long?
