Bear Bones
Another summer comes to the folks in Bear Lake and with it arrives a new man to the town. Susan Dale's brother, Sully, comes to visit, looking for a home base when not traveling the world.
Max meets him first, but during the meeting, the off kilter Max breaks his leg. Sully likes him, tries to talk to him, but Max is so embarrassed, he can't bring himself to even squeak a hello to the man.
The others in town try to help, including Ked, but Ked's form of help could do more damage, so Sean keeps him busy the only way he knows how.
When Max finally does give in and starts to date Sully, he worries about going all the way with him. Sully is experienced and worldly, and Max, well, he's barely started to talk to other men, let alone do anything else with them.
Can their friends help? Will Max end up in the playroom? Will Ked keep out of it? Find out in Bear Bones!
