The Cowboy's Desire [ManxMan] Tristan Stanley was sent away from the world he grew up in at the tender age of sixteen. Following the orders of his dictating father Tristan spent the next couple of years in a military school that was more military than school and learning that what he thought were family ties were no more than smoke. Joining the army had been his escape but his solace soon turned into a nightmare. Now, over a decade later, Tristan returns to his ancestral home due to his father falling ill. In the years since he last stepped foot on Stanley Ranch Tristan made a man out of himself, but it didn't happen without a few scars. Wanting nothing more than to turn back time Tristan sets out to find his, once, best friend, Max. What he finds at Sterling Ranch, however, is a six foot one god who makes his insides churn and his body stiffen. Micah Shaw, Max's business partner, is everything Tristan has always desired but has been afraid to look for. Copyright © 2014 MissCris

Little did Ellis realize that he has just run into his Christmas Miracle...There will be no Bah Humbug for him or his little green eyed elf this year.
