A Story by

 
 
Walt Bennet doesn’t take risks. He certainly doesn’t buy bars and he definitely doesn’t fall for handsome strangers.

But when an unexpected inheritance leads him to buy a neighborhood bar, he quickly realizes he’s in over his head. Desperate for help after his bartender is a no-show, he reluctantly accepts help from a charming stranger. What starts as a kind offer turns into something he never thought he’d take on – a walking, talking risk named Johnny Hudson.

Fresh from losing his job, Johnny finds himself at Walt’s on Water, a new neighborhood bar, watching a flustered owner try, and fail, to serve customers. Looking for a new start, Johnny takes a job with Walt, whose grumpy exterior hides more than what he lets on.

As they settle into life behind the bar, their friendship turns into something neither of them expected.

Set in 1980s Milwaukee, Icy Pour is a sweet and steamy MM novella about taking risks and finding love in unexpected places.
