Blurb/Synopsis:
Avery Rivers is a country music sensation, selling records
by the millions and playing to sold-out crowds. But behind that persona is
Robert, a burned-out musician cracking under the pressure. He’s unable to write
any new songs, and he wants out of the business—at least for a while. He
changes his appearance and finds honest, hard work in Jackson, Wyoming. Maybe
getting to be a regular guy for a while will get him past his block.
Hy Whitely was a championship bull rider until he watched
his best friend thrown in the arena and decided the rodeo circuit was no longer
the place for him. He wants to be plain old Zeke for a while, and when he
returns to his family ranch, he bumps right into Robert—a one-night stand from
his last rodeo appearance who is now working there as a ranch hand.
The heat between the men could sear the grass
off the range, but each one is hiding a secret. Robert and Zeke, the men behind
the public images, fall in love, but can they hold on when Avery and Hy are
pulled back into the spotlight?
Yeah.” Robert saw some of his desire reflected in the other
man’s eyes, and it sent his heart racing a little faster, the pit of his belly
zinging and fluttering slightly. “I just got into town a few hours ago and
needed something to eat.” He also wanted to drink and relax. Robert had no
illusions that Cheyenne was going to have any rainbow-type nightlife, but it
looked like some might have found him. That was, if he could still read the
signs.
Robert got a refill and slipped off his barstool to wander
toward the back of the bar, where a bunch of people were watching the dance
floor. The cowboy came right along with him, which in Robert’s mind was a sure
sign of interest. He leaned against the wall as couples line-danced their way
across the floor.
“I love his music,” the cowboy said from next to him.
“Me too,” Robert said about his own song. He had loved it
when he wrote it and recorded it, but now he’d heard it and sung it so many
times…. He needed something new to get the creative juices flowing. “I’m
Robert.” He held out his hand.
“Zeke,” the cowboy answered, shaking firmly, his touch
lingering just a little longer than normal, which only upped the flutter of
excitement. “I never got to see him when he was in Denver. Me and some friends
talked about getting tickets, but they were sold out in minutes.” Zeke sipped
his beer as the song came to an end, and Robert did the same, trying not to be
too obvious about watching him. “I wonder if his voice really sounds like that
or if it’s Auto-Tuned or something.”
Robert pulled a face as his temper threatened to rise. He
had never used Auto-Tune or any of that synthesized shit in his music. That was
cheating as far as he was concerned. What was heard on all his recordings was
truly him and nothing else. “I suspect it’s real. It sounds it.”
Zeke nodded. “True. How can anyone conjure up those soulful
rich undertones that get you just right?”
Robert shrugged. He certainly didn’t want to get too deep
into a discussion of himself. It seemed wrong and was way too close to home.
Half the place was dancing, and a pretty girl in boots and a
Western denim skirt came up to him, all smiles and huge eyes. “Do you dance?”
she asked Robert, fluttering her eyes at him.
Robert smiled and nodded. Then he held the lady’s hand and
led her onto the floor. It took him two seconds before he was into the moves,
and he danced to her delight, adding a little extra spring to his step.
