Product Description
Jake Taggart's life was almost perfect He'd worked hard to overcome his past, and he loved his job as foreman on a ranch in Arkansas. The only thorn in his side was a dark eyed cowboy named Tornado whose stubborn attitude brought frustration and confusion to Jake's mostly happy existence. A late spring rainstorm brings out hidden passions and unleashes a chain of events neither of them expected--and eventually brings about events that threaten to destroy them and what they worked to create. Strong wills and forceful personalities make for intense encounters...but is it enough to keep love alive?

I've read almost every gay novel written and run an extensive gay novel review website, and this is one of my all time favourites, although I believe the author had to originally self-publish. What is wrong with publishers? This book does the very rare thing of being able to cross over from blisteringly hot gay porn to a beautifully crafted, superbly written novel. I really can't fault this story; it satisfies on every level. The sex is overwhelmingly well written, and never repetitive, and it's sex between two beautiful men you will really care for and love. I sat up to the early hours of the morning with this one as I just could not put it down, so tense, so desperate for the love story to end happily. Of all the books I've reviewed on my site, this is the one I said I would like to have written myself.
Definitely an adult book, but buy and adore....

I've been on a hunt for great gay themed books. We can all admit that those are hard to find just like gay movies (don't ask me why). Now the title of this book for me is laughable. Its not something one would pick and up and say this looks great. But don't be fooled. Chris Owens is a fantastic writer and has written a beautiful book. I read the whole 300+ page book in 24 hours.
The characters are modern day cowboys (if that makes sense). So you don't need to be "saddled" down with redneck American English. The characters Jake and Tornado are beautiful, heartbreaking and real. Unlike some authors they tend to steer away from writing gay sex - but not Chris Owens. The writing is beautiful and so very hot.
Its a beautiful story and I can't reccommend this enough. Its a heart gripping story and the best news of 2007 is that Mr.Owens has released the sequel after 4 years after publishing "Bareback" called "Natural Disaster", the book is only available at www.torquerepress.com at the moment.
Buy this book if you're looking for great writing and story telling, with beautiful characters.

I loved this book from start to finish.
When I got past the first few chapters, I did wonder if the story would be able to continue to be so good, all the way to page 371, but it did. It has all the elements of a good story, in my opinion. Believable characters who I actually cared about, angst, hot sex and excellent writing that never allowed the story to become stale. I enjoyed it so much, I have just ordered another book by Chris Owen.

Basically Porn
It takes until over halfway through for this novel to actually work. The first half is just pure porn fiction and far too much of it.... Read more

PORN
I was bitterly disappointed when after a couple of chapters, realised the formula was the same, minimal dialogue, followed by maximum sex, like reading a porn film script. Read more
