2nd Edition Jack Russo is two hundred pounds of deadly Army specialist fighting two wars-one in Iraq in 2004 and the other against the US military's Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy, which keeps him closeted and lonely. When his injured gun truck driver is replaced with new recruit Shawn Farrelly, Jack is instantly attracted even though the private's sexuality is a mystery. Recently married, Shawn joined the military to get benefits for his wife, only to end up in a combat zone with a sexy squad leader to whom he is inexplicably drawn-and who clearly wonders if Shawn would be open to some male-male experimentation. But war is a dangerous time to explore new feelings, and all too soon a rescue mission devolves into an ambush. Despite seeing no escape, Jack and Shawn decide to go out with smiles on their faces-together. 1st Edition published by Silver Publishing, February 2011
