Missing Aaron

Frontier Brothers #2

by Kenn Dahll

In this sequel to Soaring with a Hawk, Dirk, an eighteen year old son of pioneers, is devastated when his hero, Aaron, flees with an Indian brave after being caught in a compromising sexual situation. Dirk transfers his admiration to Aaron’s younger brother, Zeke, whose life is ruined by his brother’s disgrace. His sweetheart’s parents have forbidden the pair to become engaged because of the scandal.

Jonas, the next younger brother who exposed Aaron’s indiscretions, taunts Zeke about him, including sexual gratification through domination. Jonas is not above proposing incest and hinting at blackmail to entice Zeke and Dirk into his web of deceit and degradation. Dirk is torn between the handsome and athletic, yet elusive, Zeke; and the repulsive and scruffy, yet sexually enticing Jonas. His real need is for masculine affection and he’s not sure how to obtain it.

Zeke’s aloofness, arising from confusion over his attraction to Dirk, drives the object of his desire into Jonas’ clutches with disastrous consequences−emotionally and sexually. Aaron, although not physically present, is the motivating force behind the decisions and actions of Dirk, Zeke and Jonas.

Sex is the battle ground where Jonas fights for Zeke’s approbation in spite of his betrayal of their older brother; and on which he humiliates Dirk in a perverted attempt to emulate Aaron’s sexual successes.

Generally, Kenn sees a hot male and constructs a fantasy story around him. Sometime, a situation inspires him and a story will take shape in his mind, which is then populated from his imagination. As a bureaucrat in local government, Kenn claims to find few outlets outside of porn fiction for his innate creativity and is pleased others are interested in reading what he writes.

Reviews

[Gavin Stephenson-Jackman · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is meant to be a follow-up to Soaring With Hawk, but comes across as a muddled tale of the twisted urges of Aaron's brother Jonas and his inability to deal with his brother's actions from the first story. His twisted mind in basically raping Dirk. It would have been better if the characters had been allowed to really develop.
