Knots by E.M. Leya

At one time, Al had it all. He dominated everything in his life from work to his lovers. He was one of the most sought-after bachelors and Doms in the area, but now, after being scarred in an explosion overseas, he hides, spending his life in solitude away from the public eye.
Coming home after years in the military, Brad is just trying to find his way and decide what he wants to do with his life. Getting back into the BDSM lifestyle he used to love is top of his list. He never expected to find someone at his brother’s wedding.
Desire builds quickly between the two and they soon find they have more in common than they thought. One night turns into two, but is it enough? When Al is forced to make a reappearance in the world, it’s all or nothing. They either face the world together or hide from it alone.
