Melting Ice 7 — D.J. Manly

U.S. Marshal Julian Harrison is taking a much-needed vacation in the South, one of those all-expenses-paid trips where all you do is drink fancy cocktails and tan in the sun. Unfortunately, his vacation is cut short when two Marshals show up. It's an important case, guarding another U.S. Marshal, who has blown the whistle on some men he worked with. One of them is still at large, and was his superior. Julian is not happy about losing his vacation time, but he's even more unhappy when he is told the name of the Marshal. Victor Reeves went through Marshal training with Julian, and they were not friends. In fact, Victor made it a point to compete with Julian on every activity. Julian suggests they send someone else to watch over Victor, but apparently, Victor personally requested him. But why? Alone in a cabin with plenty of time to rehash old times, Julian is about to make many discoveries, some of which will surprise. and excite him.
