Why this must be read: It's the 4th of July and there's a celebration at Four Corners. The first part of the story is from Chris' POV as he views the town and it's people during the celebration. I like the glimpses of various members of the team as they enjoy all the fun of the carnival and really enjoy this look at a comfortable and indulgent Chris.

The second part of the story is about Vin's search for Ezra and how the two men discover they have lots more in common than they first thought. The backstory for both men is well drawn and I like how the author describes Vin's fascination with Ezra. The sex is hot, the smidgen of hurt/comfort is just right and the last portion winds the story up perfectly.

Excerpt: Vin wasn't really sure who was leading and who was following, and it really didn't matter. Somewhere along the line they managed to match strokes, hips thrusting into fists in time like a synchronized duet. Ragged breathing, faint moans, interspersed with gasps and whispers of 'please' were more than enough to keep them pushing toward the edge together.

Sweat slick skin gliding under his hands and against him were easily the best thing Vin had ever felt. He couldn't get enough, wishing he had more hands. That tantalizing fragrance he'd noticed before now was overlain by a more earthy musk that combined into something so much more appealing. Vin absently hoped some measure of that enticing scent would linger on his skin forever.

Although I've found bits of the author's works in other places, the bulk of her fic seems to be only on the Geocities website. So check it out while you still can...
