About this ebook
His future was set until a thief stole his heart.
All of Clyde’s Corner, Montana, knows local dandy Chris Ramsey will marry Trix Stubben, young widow and heir to the richest ranch in the area. But one woman isn’t too keen on the idea. Mabe Crassen wants to get her hands on that ranch, so she sets her older son to court Trix, and her younger son, Jeremy, to distract Chris and lure him astray.
Jeremy Crassen thinks his mother’s scheme is crazy. But he wants desperately to go off to college, which Mabe will agree to—if he seduces Chris. How will shy, virginal, secretly gay Jeremy attract Chris, who seems determined to do the right thing and marry Trix? Jeremy can’t compete with a rich female widow. Or can he?

She began writing m/m romance in 2013 and has published 27 books since then. She hopes to write many more. As an avid reader of such, she is tickled pink when an author manages to combine literary merit, vast stores of humor, melting hotness, and eye-dabbing sweetness into one story. She promises to strive to achieve most of that most of the time. She currently lives on a farm in Pennsylvania with her husband, two bulldogs, several cows, and a cat. All of them (except for the husband) are female, hence explaining the naked men that have taken up residence in her latest fiction writing.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Most people might wonder if Mabe Crassen is serious about her scheme. But her son Jeremy knows better, even though he's surprised about one aspect of it. Chris Ramsey is set to marry Trix Stubben, a widowed single mother. Trix also just happens to live on the most successful ranch in the area. Mabe has her sights on that ranch, so she's set her sons to work. Eric, Jeremy's older brother, is to use his charms on Trix. It shouldn't be too hard; Eric's great with the ladies. And Jeremy's assignment is to seduce Chris. If they can get Chris in a compromising position, there will be no engagement. There are two problems with that: Chris isn't gay (is he?), and Jeremy's never come out to his mother. There's no way she could know, right?
Jeremy isn't keen on being a part of the scheme. But he wants nothing more than to get out of Clyde's Corner and go to college. That's not going to happen as long as he's needed to contribute to the family finances. His mother's plan seems like his ticket out. So he's willing to play along. But will he be able to go through with the plan when he gets to know Chris better? And if he develops feels for Chris, will he be able to leave him behind when he finally gets out of town?
The plot of this one seems like it might be straightforward. But one thing's for certain: it's not. There are some major twists here that throw the story for a loop. And the relationships that build here do so in a believable and understandable way. The character development is well done too. The strong writing here brings Clyde's Corner to life and it's almost like they all jump right off the page. I had a hard time putting this one down.
