After a fierce betrayal, Quint closes off his heart, walking the earth alone. He can’t trust anyone, even if they need him. He can’t, he just can’t.
He’s designed his life to follow a steady, even cadence. There are rules.
Rule Number One – Don’t mess with Quint.
Rule Number Two – Don’t disobey Quint on a trail ride.
Rule Number Three – Don’t ever forget rule 1 or rule 2.
Then along comes Ashley, who doesn’t follow any rules, especially ones that keep him from getting exactly what he wants.
A gay m/m cowboy romance with opposites attract, fish out of water, grumpy/sunshine, rugged meets bratty. A little sweet, a little steamy, with a guaranteed HEA.
The Trail Boss and the Brat by Jackie North
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Thank you for the ARC read, I voluntarily give this book an honest review. No matter how you far you run, life is full of circles..right!?! This is Quint and Ashley’s story where more then star gazing is just over the horizon!
As you start reading about Quint’s past you become so heartbroken just in a few paragraphs. How his life is impacted by a hateful ex that does care of the damage left behind. To just way he shutters himself away, that he is unwilling to let anyone breech. Bouncing from one loss job to the next until he landed in the sights of a young Brody.
Everything that brings Ashley happiness, it seems is so beneath him or at least to his family standing. After all Ashley was the beat as his own drummet boy, now no one was in his corner after the death of Aunt Nina. When a vacation away from His aunt Nina, to the mysterious ranch he grown-up hearing exciting stories about. Reality was far more exciting, in the form of a no rule breaking Quint. It all a show to get under Quint’s spurs or was the boy really just a spoiled brat in need of just the right handler? Quint was bound to find out even if he had his own life disrupted.
