I'm not the biggest anthology fan--usually I can take 'em or leave 'em--but I really enjoyed this one. Maybe because it didn't feel like an anthology to me, but more like one continuous novel focusing on three separate couples. It definitely helped that all three stories were written by the same author (no jarring differences in style to break up the mood) and there was a family connection to each of the three couples in the book, and hey--they were cowboys!

"Down in Texas" is a three story western erotica anthology from Delilah Devlin. The stories center on two ranching families in Texas finding love and a whole lotta steamy sex.
"Wearing His Brand" - What happens when the one man you want is the one who promised your brother he'd keep you safe? Well, you could just push him past his edge...as long as you can handle it. ***Sizzling

This book had three short stories featuring two cowboy heroes and one wounded soldier who is also a cowboy. I enjoyed all three stories but they were too short, I wished for a little more fleshing out of the characters and plots. The love scenes weren't really hot enough for me to consider this "romantica" but they were still good and sexy. The three stories were inter-connected so we do get to see the first two couples in the last story but I really would have wished for about 100 mor...more
Ther is a warning on the back of this book. and it rights very hot read. Purvettes belly up to the bar and get this one. You won;t regret it
There were three short stories packed in this Trade Paperback. All written by the same author and all connected.
1. Wearing His Brand
I didn't care much for this story because I felt the heroine was too aggressive, manipulative and a tease. The hero was too dominant for me and I didn't find their intimate scenes sexy based on that.
2 Stars
2. Slow Ride
This was my favorite of the three. It involved a 7 year age difference where the hero...more

Wearing His Brand
Lyssa McDounough knows the only way to get Brandon Tynan to notice her is to get him spitting mad. Fortunately she does it quite regularly and relishes the idea that one day he may act on all that passion. Brand has been fighting himself over wanting Lyssa, but he knows just one taste is all it would take to make him want to claim her as his own.

I love short stories and I love stories that take place in Texas, so this was a no brainer for me.
Three stories, all taking place in the same town. An oddity was that every so often I would be surprised of the presence of electricity or a car in the story. They take place in modern times but you'd hardly know it by how the men act, how everyone talks and the overall feeling of the book. That was a little weird.

This one was an anthology.. and I was really surprised that I liked it. I usually have trouble with anthologies because more or less one of the stories sucks. But this one was just kind of written like a continuous book just with different perspectives. All of the characters in each story are connected so it flows better.
I think my favorite story was Mac and Suki. They were just funny as hell.
I will definitely be looking into more books by this author.

Hot erotica, but the storylines were just ok. Writing wasn't the best, and the romance between the couples wasn't totally believable.
I do so enjoy Honkytonk...Those Texas men are funny, sexy and all too Alpha...worth keeping on the re-read shelf.

Wearing his Brand, Slow Ride and Straight Up Soldeier.
Pretty good.
There are 4 forgettable, boring stories. Not much is going on outside the bed, couldn’t make myself care
All three stories in this collection were good! Plenty of steam and a little bit of suspense.
Rated 3.5

Just okay. Not as good as the second book Texas Men. Lots o' sex!
Mac and Sukis story was the best of the three, but jesus I hated her name.
Maybe a little too much, "Ugggg I cant be with you, can't, can't, just can't........Oh god I love you marry me now!" Of course that is what you get with a short story.
