Flynn Tomlinson has drifted for several years, working odd jobs when he needs the money and moving on when he doesn't. He's content with his freestyle life, not tied down, not responsible for anyone but himself. Then he comes across a Help Wanted ad in a post office in Idaho and meets Gable Sutton. Gable can't pay Flynn until he sells his horses, but a serious accident has left him unable to work his ranch alone. Working with horses beats stacking shelves at the supermarket, and so Flynn agrees to Gable's terms. What Flynn doesn't bargain for is being captivated by this gentle, lonely man who captures his heart and moves Flynn to take on an incredible burden: saving Gable's ranch.

A deep, detailed, and delightful romance
By Robert Carnevali
I rate this about 4.5 stars, rounded up to five for Amazon's rating system. The level of detail of the characters, along with the complex relationship, surprised me a great deal.
Gable runs a small horse ranch. Due to an accident, his foot is mangled and he's in near-constant pain. He had a sexual relationship with this last ranch-hand, Grant, but Grant had taken off, and Gable is now realizing he can no longer manage his ranch alone. He puts up a short help-wanted ad at the post office, offering room and board, with the salary to be paid after six weeks when he can sell off some of his herd. Flynn is a bit of a drifter. He doesn't choose to be, it's just that the few places he's wound up in during his young life held no joy or promises, so he would move on. The help-wanted ad he sees is perfect. With room and board taken care of, he won't need a salary until the job is over, and he loves ranch work, having performed it on his own family's ranch. Both men are gay, and though each finds the other to be attractive, sparks don't actually fly until much later.
The characters are unique and finely developed in this story. Gable is a man who never really learned how to love, so when love does finally come around, he's not sure what to do with it. He's much older than Flynn, and is also "damaged goods", so he doesn't date believe Flynn would want to stay around anyway. Also, he didn't have a good experience with his last lover. Grant was closeted, and Gable fell into an odd sexual-but-non-intimate relationship. He really doesn't know how to have an intimate relationship. Flynn is all about the intimacy, and even when the two start having sex, Gable's tendency to keep intimacy out makes Flynn feel used. This is a very strong point for the novel, as in most romantic tales, the sex itself is almost always mind-blowingly perfect. Here, it's almost a hindrance to romance. Besides this, a worsening of Gable's injury leaves him dependent upon Flynn, and totally despondent, which also strains the relationship just as it's starting.
Interestingly, the relationship is settled long before the book's conclusion. There is a healthy amount of secondary characters who have had influence in Gable's life, and what makes the story interesting is that the romance is settled and secure long before the book's conclusion. We witness the romance, then continue to watch the pair, as a couple, relate to, and resolve, many issues dealing with the secondary characters. It's refreshing.
There is a slight tendency to feel that the book meanders at a few points, so pacing probably could have been just a little tighter, but only a little bit. That's not really a complaint, just an observation. This long detailed story ultimately fulfills, with some heartfelt emotion, wit, drama, suspense, and colorful and compelling characters.

This review may contain spoilers
By Nikyta
I was liking this story very much. I enjoyed the way Flynn and Gable met, how they worked together and the sexual tension between the two. I even liked the fact Flynn and Gable started singing 'I love you's' way too soon. I liked Flynn and his need to have a permanent home and how he just wanted to take care of Gable. I liked Gable because he was so confused on why Flynn was staying with him and even how self-conscious and how low his self-worth really was.
However, while I liked the story in the beginning, it kind of took a wrong turn somewhere for me. I didn't enjoy how Gable essentially was using Flynn as a f***-toy/housekeeper when it was clear Flynn wanted an actual relationship with feelings. Gable would be lovey dovey one moment then all but running from the room and cold as ice the next. It was like he was bi-polar and his actions towards Flynn when he was pissed frustrated me.
I didn't like the direction the story went in. I'm not overly fond of ex-lovers being in a story (Grant is in almost the whole last half of the book) and I don't enjoy female characters that much either (the best friend, Calley). Really, I didn't like how big a part Calley and her pregnancy played in the last half of the story. It felt wrong and inconsistent with the beginning. Honestly, I felt like it took away from my enjoyment especially when I felt like Calley was kind of manipulating Gable into being the babies daddy (while not actually having to be a daddy). It just felt wrong to me and like she was dumping all her problems on Gable and expected him to fix them for her so she could be happy and him and Flynn could be miserable instead. Okay, I may be over exaggerating on the miserable part but it still felt like she dumped all her problems on Gable and expected him to fix them.
The story was also very inconsistent in general. Flynn would say one thing and then end up doing something different. Gable said he'd never donate sperm unless he could physically be the kid's dad then ends up donating sperm. There was also the fact that the things mentioned in the beginning ended up being something different in the end (Flynn says Gable and him never cuddled in the beginning of their relationship which is inaccurate as they did cuddle, how they never slept close together before the accident when, in fact, they did) and other things like that.
I also felt like the second half of the story was a whole setup for the sequel (featuring Hunter and Grant). A lot of the scenes in the story were also unnecessary and just seemed like a filler. The timeline around the events had me questioning whether it was accurate or not. I also felt like the writing ranged between stunted and choppy. It made reading a bit difficult especially when it seemed to drag a bit.
With that said, I did like the story to some extent. I liked the characters enough and I liked the conflict regarding Gable's leg. I found that interesting although I had a problem coping with Gable's semi-easy acceptance of its loss considering he was so anti-amputation.
All in all, this was an okay story. I liked the beginning but I wasn't so fond of the rest. I liked Flynn even if what he said was counteracting other things he said and did. I think this will be a hit or miss with others, though, so I encourage people to still try reading it and make up your own mind whether you liked the story or not.

A heartwarming and tender cowboy romance.
By Niki
This is an enjoyable cowboy romance with enough emotions to satisfy. I have to say I was not that impressed in the beginning when both guys started checking each other out and I thought "oh dear, it is the same old lust and sex". But the emotional struggles soon set in, which I thought the writer has expressed well.
Whatever they started out of attraction and loneliness was not suppose to last. Flynn has looks and is a drifter. Gable is so much older and really has nothing to hold the younger man back. Gable realizes that and keeps pushing Flynn away even when the younger man hints at a relationship. Their fragile relationship is tested when Gable's health turns for the worst and is unable to decide for himself during a life threatening moment. Here we see Flynn's strength as he stays by his man and shows a maturity beyond his years. Living with a recuperating invalid is no easy task and there are quite a few angst filled moments during Gable's healing which I again thought the writer expresses well. Gable's constant rejection is hurtful but understandable. Even so there are times when I wish Gable will show more backbone and be more "manly". On the other hand Flynn seems too good to be true even if I like this character more. But Flynn does have his own hurtful past and he is not just a drifter as initially portrayed. One good question raised here is how vital is sex in a relationship?
There is a little complication when Gable's ex reappears and hooks up with the neighboring rich rancher. Grant and Hunter makes another fine gay cowboy couple and I can easily see the writer giving them their own story in the future. The only complaint I have is one very bizarre situation involving Gable's close female friend's attempt to have babies. Ouch! this "sperm donating" thing is just odd. I love Diplomacy by the same writer. Her follow-up effort after Diplomacy was so so. With Clouds and Rain, I am glad this writer has not lost her touch after all.
