Review: The Cowboy and the Outcast by Jackie North 3 of 5 stars

The Cowboy and the Outcast









The Cowboy and the Outcast by Jackie North
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

On the run for two years from an abusive family situation, Kell searches for a safe harbour. Instead of that happening, Kell gets arrested, but, unbelievably, amidst the horrors of prison, there shines a glimmer of hope. Marston’s life is a mess. Everything he touches crumbles to dust. A second chance comes in the form of a job with the Farthingdale Valley New Start Program, except the two parolees assigned to him don’t even show up, so the job is a disaster from the get-go. Temptation appears to Marston in the form of a particular ex-con: skinny, foul-mouthed, unable to keep up with the other prison-hardened parolees. Now he’s Marston’s responsibility. Marston has failed at everything else - he knows he’ll fail at resisting temptation. Can’t sleep. Can’t touch. Can’t have. Kell and Marston are lonely, until they find each other. Can they make love last?

I enjoyed this story of the two men who each had their own challenges but together found love even if they had a few battles to fight to get there. The two men felt very real and I was fully invested in both of them and their relationship. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
