GABRIEL People tell me I have a nice body. They don't know I get it by pushing a broom and mopping floors. Taking off my clothes for money would be insane. I'm only auditioning at this strip club because I'm desperate. When I actually get the job, I'm totally outside my comfort zone - especially with the ridiculously gorgeous, inexplicably flirtatious coworker who's been assigned to show me around.

ACE Who cares about money? I strip for the hell of it. The cute customers are all eager to get their hands on my hard wood. So are my fellow oiled-up, buff male dancers. But even an all-you-can-f*** buffet gets boring after a while. It's time to move on - until I see the new guy. Gabriel is fresh-faced and innocent, and I'm dying to corrupt him. Once might not even be enough. I might need a lifetime with him...

Hard Wood is a full-length, standalone gay romance in the Tool Shed series.
