Blurb:
Most of the time ranch hand David
rescues stray cattle, but this time he and his fellow cowboys Wally and Haven
save a stranded motorist. David is surprised to find his former high school
classmate nearly frozen in his car. After learning that Brian Applewright’s
boss fired him from his ranch for being gay, they invite him back to theirs to
take a job.
David and Brian moved in different social circles at school, but working together brings them closer. However, David has a rocky history on the ranch. The foreman is his ex, and he only recently returned after a heartbreakingly unsuccessful attempt to find greener pastures. He can’t risk his heart getting close to anyone.
But on a ranch, nature has a way of forcing an issue. When a snowstorm threatens, David and Brian head out to mend a fence and round up some stray cattle. David gets injured, and they must survive in the snow, cold, and wind. It might be the start of a relationship… or the end of their lives.

Review:
I love The Range series, it’s like seeing old friends
again while you meet new ones. I can tell you however I did not like David for
the first part of this book. Feelings got hurt and I wasn’t in a place to
forgive him for what he did to Mario yet. I know I wasn’t the only one he hurt.
Seriously, I didn’t like him at first but as the story went on, he redeemed
himself. I think Brian had a lot to do with the change in David though.
You know that saying. “You don’t know what you have until
it’s gone.”? Yes, well David finally found himself and finished unfinished
business. Then he was able to grab onto what was in front of him. Up until the
arrival of Brian, David was just there to do his job and lay low. Everyone
deserves a second chance and I’m glad now that he got one and it was because
Andrew Grey has a kind heart.
Brian, what can I say about Brian? He’s very sweet and he
came across to me as innocent. I cannot imagine not wanting a man like him
around. But there were things and I do mean things, the word human is too good
for them, who hated him just because of who he chose to love. They made his
life miserable where he came from. That’s ok though, he found his place with
David, Dakota and the rest of the good looking cowboys. Brian is a strong
person and a survivor as he has demonstrated quite a few times in this story. I
really hope to see more of him in the future.
This book is terrific, I read it straight through from
beginning to end in one day. I highly recommend this book and if you haven’t
read the Range Books yet. I will list them in order below.
