It's about time someone wrote a gay cowboy romance that doesn't emotionally scar everyone who comes within a 100-foot radius of it. If you, like me, watched Brokeback Mountain and immediately considered asking your doctor for a Prozac prescription, may I interest you in Stirring Spurs?
Like M.A. Wardell's previous books, Stirring Spurs is a fun, cozy, low-angst romance full of queer joy and spice.
Set on a queer-inclusive ranch in rural Oklahoma, this book will resonate with those of us who fought to carve out the community we so desperately needed but struggled to find. Boone is the ranch cook and a natural caretaker who goes above and beyond for his family, both found and biological, without asking for anything in return. Wylie is a broody, reserved cowboy with a painful past and a hesitance to open up, which of course made him my favorite. As the two of them become closer and acknowledge their growing feelings for one another, they come to understand the importance of allowing themselves to be cared for and seen by the people who really matter.
They also fuck. Everyone say, "Thank you, Matt!"
Reading if you like:
• food as a love language
• cowboys who don't have to quit each other
• queer sanctuaries
• miniature horses causing problems
• the inherent eroticism of a pickup truck
Thank you to the author and Grey's Promotions for an advanced copy!
