After a year of traveling before settling into art school, Trent Rawlings returned to the small town where he grew up, just in time to celebrate his best friend's twenty-first birthday. What started as a fun night of glitzing it up and dancing at a rave, ended with an arrest, his best friend's negotiations for a "get out of jail free" card, and an overwhelming urge to tack...more

3.5 stars - A fun and fast short story (with the extra bonus of being free to download.)
This is the second work I’ve read by L.C. Chase (after the very enjoyable and taut thriller Riding with Heaven.) Here, she coauthors a short story with Xara X. Xanakas. It’s a fun, light, and fast read. (At a little over 10,000+ words,)
The story is about young Trent, home from college and celebrating his BFF Caleb’s 21st birthday. But things go from fun to confusing when Cal is arrested and Trent, in true BFF...more

Beyond expectation!
I would gladly give this piece a 5 star if I didn't quite in the edge of my seat when I read the ending. It's too short! I want more continuation on Trent and Jared!
At first I was rather hesitant to download, expecting this story to be just a kinky one-night stand story of two police officer and two twinks. But then it's free, who am I get it pass for a free book? So I download it with my worst expectation.
But after I read it, I admitted that I was horribly wrong. This is no k...more

3.5 stars. Was this story totally predictable? Yes, indeed it was. Was it still entertaining? Pretty much so. It's Cal's 21st birthday and his party is at a bonfire. His friend Trent is back home after a year of traveling. When a cop comes on the scene and arrests Cal for Disorderly Conduct, Trent refuses to let his friend go to jail alone. Once in a cell, Cal uses his seductive skills to get them released on "good behavior". I know, the plot's a tiny bit cheesy, but I liked Trent -...more

Super cute, well written, entertaining...and free! Who could ask for more? Definitely recommended:)
Despite the plot being totally predictable I still thoroughly enjoyed this well written and lively short. Friends Cal and Trent are great together and the fun, bantering conversation was a hoot. It moves along at a fairly quick pace and Trent's uneasiness with their unexpected jailhouse situation is believable. There's a lot of flirting, plenty of emotion and lots of suggestive behavior, but at heart its a romantic tale of a birthday fantasy fulfilled. I would love a short featuring Trent and Ja...more

I enjoyed this story so much!
It's really rare for me to give a full 5 stars to short stories/novelettes, because no matter how good they might be, they usually tend to feel somewhat lacking due to the length. But, although this one did leave me desperately wanting more, overall it still felt very complete and satisfying.
Very well written, great plot and great characters! A definite page-turner, and highly recommended!
A note to the authors: Can we get a sequel? Pretty please! :D

What a fun read. I was surprized I liked this as well as I did because I usually like novel-length stories where there's more time for the characters to develop, etc. These two authors are really good in telling this really sweet and erotically charged story. I should have known it was going to be good when I saw it was dedicated to my friend, Thorny. May he serve as the muse for more stories like this!
This short story is another break I need from all the murder mysteries I read -- it's kinky naughty, and I totally think that Cal is a kinky slut (grin). I wish the relationship between Trent and Thompson is more developed though, that the whole story gives something (rather than Trent's inner monologue), like them acting on their attraction. Still, for a short story, it's nice.
A wonderful free read!
Trent is home because his BF Cal is celebrating his birthday - but they both end up in jail......
Trent gets the hots for one of the local cops; and Cal makes out with another (although, unknown to Trent, this one is Cal's lover).
A lovely (happy for now) read, and isn't Trent just a super guy, putting himself in jail to support his friend!!

What a great little story, funny, sweet and sexy. The characters where great, Cal who seemed familiar to me *wink* I could really see him and bear together. Trent and Jared deserve a story of their own, and that was one niggle I had with this short story, the ending seems more like a beginning for them! Like all shorts they end too soon!

Who can resist a hot steaming sex in jail house? I couldn't! It's a wonderful written cute short story. You'll need to give it a shot and you won't be disappointed. Hey, it's free...who can ignore that either? ;D
I give this 4 1/2 stars.
I would have loved to read a full-length book continuing from where this ended. I want to read more about Trent and Jared. A great short little story.

Honestly the story isn't bad it's just personally for me the book didn't jive with what I expect out of a friend so I couldn't really enjoy it as other's did.
Cute, funny, and erotic! I love that Trent is such a good friend to Cal and even though I figured out the "surprise" early on, it was fun to see Trent's reaction.

Loved the story, the only problem I had with it is that it was too short. I wanted to see this taken out of the realms of fantasy into reality! 4.5 stars.
I absolutely love this and everyone loves a freebie ;D Who can resist a hot sex in jail? :) That's all I can share and you'll need to read and find out! :D
I enjoyed this short story it was well written, even though I figured out the ending quite fast, but will have to go read more by both authors.
I loved this story!! It is sweet, just like the person who inspired it. I hope LC Chase and Xara write more works together. Maybe a squeal?
Cute and predictable but oh so hot. Loved how Trent was totally clueless as to what was going on which just made the book even better.
Cute story about young flirty twinks, hot uniformed officers and fantasies. Predictible, but well written, sweet, thoroughly enjoyable story.
This a a fun, free read about a guy who goes the extra mile trying to protect a friend. It's a short story and it's easy to see what's coming, but well worth the time.
(The story is much cuter than the cover . . .)

Totally adorable! :D But, then, a story by these two ladies couldn't be anything less than awesome. And it's free to boot? Win/win.
Super cute... Scorcher of a story, even though the reader caught on before Trent - it has my 2 of my favourite words .. Fun and Free :-)
What a fun read. Nobody told me it was dedicated to Thorny! I could see him in the character Cal. What a suspenseful and well-told story!
Jailhouse Rock is a short story that has some very nice reviews written about it. I wish I could join them, but I can't get over the transparency of the plot. Knowing what was going to happen only made be want the story to be over with. The characters are cute and likable, but it seemed that they all were holding their breath hoping that no one would find out what they were doing. I wish there had been more for them to do, more for them to be. The plot needs fluffing out, it might work better as...more
This is a lovely well written short story,with a dash of humor, loved the MCs and the little twist in the tail!!!
This was a great story! Thanks to Thorny for the pic inspiring this lovely little birthday fantasy tale.
Short story fun filled with twinks, cop fantasies and a steamy (yet pg-13) plot. I really liked.
A fun, short read. Wish it had been longer!
And the Dedication? - PERFECT! :D
