Lion's Mate

When Julian Montague rolls into a small mill town on the back side of nowhere, he isn't looking for any trouble. He's broke and fallen on hard times - but his idea to run from a license check on a main highway has backfired. He went off road on his motorcycle and now he's hopelessly lost and almost out of gas. Stopping at the only station in town, he's confronted by bullies with a gun who insist he's on the "wrong side of the line" and then proceed to attack him. Fighting them off, he heads for the dubious safety of the "other side" when he's attacked by a wild animal and crashes, almost killing himself. Waking up tied to a bed, he's startled to find his injuries are being tended by a large, handsome man named Leo who bosses him around, showers him with affection and insists on calling him kitty. Something is going on in this strange town called Hell's Creek, involving the large paper mill and the strange inhabitants who live in separate territories and answer only to the Company. Julian needs to find out what it is before he finds himself the "mate" of another man - and the main problem with that is that he's beginning to like the idea way too much.
