My rating: 4 of 5 stars
After losing a bet to his friend George, Randall Whealton, Earl of Plymouth, reluctantly spends a month at a Wyoming ranch. He immediately clashes with cattle wrangler Sawyer Kincaid, who finds the snooty Englishman insufferable yet undeniably attractive. When Sawyer defends Randall in a bar fight and nurses his injuries, their hidden spark ignites into a fiery connection—forcing them to face what happens when Randall's month in Wyoming ends.
On the surface, this was a lovely story about a romance between an uptight Earl and a cowboy, but if you dig deeper, it offers so much more depth. Beneath the surface attraction, both men have suffered terrible abuse at the hands of their fathers in their pasts, leaving them each to navigate a heavy, inherited mess left behind in the wake of those relationships. I loved the way the author beautifully described the landscape for both countries - the vivid settings made it so easy to picture and truly appreciate the scenery, whether in Britain or Wyoming. It was also wonderful how thoughtfully the author explained their internal thoughts and feelings throughout; even though both Randall and Sawyer are deeply emotionally repressed characters, their inner worlds and developing bond were rendered so clearly that every emotion felt completely genuine and earned. This was an MM story with mature content.
