title: Navigating the Vampire Maze
author: Richards, Charlie
description: Stanton Thundler has been looking forward to the haunted hay maze ever since his coworker's boyfriend promised everyone tickets. When he gets there, the place doesn't disappoint. He laughs, screams, and hollers with the rest of his buddies...until he lingers over a display too long, takes a wrong turn, and ends up separated from his friends. Stanton doesn't mean to bump into the slender hottie and knock him into a puddle of mud.Francois Toulouse is irritated when he's ordered to go to a coven near Amarillo and inspect their beef. The only thing he knows about cows is how to cook them so they taste amazing. Then he learns a seer has foreseen that he'll meet his beloved there. The human Fate chooses for him is not what he expects. Stanton is big, brawny, dirty, and a polar opposite to Francois's fastidious tidiness and sophistication. Still, Stanton was his beloved...To Stanton's surprise, Francois asks him out. While he's flattered, he declines. What would be the point when even Stanton can see they have nothing in common?
