I loved the cover of this book and since this was about cowboys, made it double yummy. I enjoyed this story about four brothers who own a ranch in a small town. Now having them all being gay is a bit much, but it didn't bother me too much. This is pretty much an OFY story between Jesse and Ben and at times it was a little annoying with Ben always running away and not facing his feelings. I did find the parts with Troy a little unfinished. The events with him were thrown in, but then it was like the author just dropped it and that part of the story was not really resolved. I don't know if more will be put into the next book if this series continued. I just felt that part unfinished. What I didn't expect was the ending with Chase, it was just unexpected and emotional, did not see that coming. All in all a good story and I look forward to see where the author takes this series with the other brothers.

Fantastic novella. I was overtaken with the fleshy-industrial imagery and somewhere along the way I became really invested in the characters which is rare for me, especially in such a limited amount of pages.

The only mark against it is the illustrations. There are four of them, all in the begining and all pretty poorly done. It's distracting. The cover is beautiful, though.
