Sapling

A forest ablaze with lust… A bond abloom through knowledge…

Nineteen-year-old Syo is an aspiring conservationist, and a vicious adversary to destroyers of the environment. On his way back to his dorm from downtown, he stops in the woods to gather some data for his recently given report project.

There, he comes across the log cabin of a rugged and reclusive woodsman named Jack. Tall, burly, and bearded, he’s the epitome of a cliché lumberjack. Syo instantly detests him, a killer of the woods, but is also strangely aroused by his masculine beauty and aura.

But there’s more to Jack than muscles and an axe, and without even trying, he shakes everything that Syo knows about life and himself. Perhaps one night, two strong hands, and a touch of wisdom can provide the succor that the boy can’t refuse.

Reader Advisory: This book contains explicit homoerotic scenes. For the sake of avoiding spoilers, let’s just say that the spice level is pretty high.
