Not a must read but certainly an enjoyable reading June 29, 2008 The plot was actually quite promising. But I quickly got disappointed. The two kind of very "masculine" characters end up being two big queens almost humping each other constantly and in front of everyone. The sex scenes were also too graphical I thought. Overall ok-ish but certainly not great litterature. What I really liked though was the fight for acceptance cause this was quite realistic, especially if put back in the context of rural towns. This is what I would define a good "beach book".
Sexy fun June 25, 2008 This story about two gorgeous, adorable cowboys in Texas in so engaging and the characters so well-developed you can almost forget it's basically a book of porn and convince yourself you're reading popular fiction - and I mean that in the best way! Jamie grew up as the little brother of Ethan's best friend, John, who is straight. Neither Jamie or Ethan knew the other was gay and when they discover it, and Ethan kindly offers Jamie a place to stay, the sparks fly. They have wonderful chemistry and lots of steamy sex- then their relationship blooms into a sweet, but not too mushy love story. Throw in some crime, drama, and major homophobia (it takes place in small-town Texas after all) and you have the making of an actual interesting plot. It's definitely a guilty pleasure that you will want to read over and over - in between cold showers - yeah!
Good book June 18, 2008 I thought this was a really good book. Yes, there are tons of detailed sex scenes, but if you can look passed thoughs if that bothers you, the plot is really good. Very good book =)
The Tin Star May 20, 2008 When Jamie told his father and brother that he was gay, he expected yelling and screaming. What he didn't expect was getting thrown off the Quadruple J with no job and no where to go. However, Jamie's brother John and his friend Ethan are supportive and understanding. So Ethan calls Jamie and offers him a place to stay and a job at his ranch, the Tin Star. As soon as Jamie arrives, Ethan starts to see him for the man he has become instead of his best friend's brother.
Jamie has always had a crush on Ethan and working so closely with him at the ranch is going to be hard when he can't touch him like he wants to. But Jamie is pleasantly surprised when Ethan tells him he is gay too. Things are hard for Jamie; the townsfolk and fellow ranch hands don't approve of gay men, and Jamie's own father is the worst of the lot. At the same time Jamie and Ethan start a secret affair, the threats against Jamie are increasing. Now the cowboys have to try and make a life for themselves amongst the danger and prejudice surrounding them.
Ethan and Jamie have a really comfortable, passionate relationship right from the start. These cowboys had me flushed and panting every time they touched! They are so sexy, yet the chemistry between them is more than just sizzling sex, they are also really romantic. I just adore Ethan and Jamie together. They fit each other like a glove. The Tin Star is a terrific story!
