I really enjoyed this story and am eager to move on to the next one.

While it was a somewhat typical story of an out and proud man (Marty) trying to deal with his deeply closeted lover (Tripp) while both are working on the testosterone filled rodeo circuit, I thought it was done with a lot of emotion and set up a romance that I really wanted to work.

This had all sorts of stuff I really love. Cowboys and horses and hurt/comfort and angst and drama and good friends and good family. I really like LC's writing--she has an easy way with words that makes her stuff a pleasure to read, and she tied all of those things together into a completely awesome package.

The next two books in the series ...more
