How far would you travel for one man?

The very last thing Jimmy Downing needed was a skinny traveling partner who acted half his age with a chip on his shoulder and no idea how the real world worked. Because Jimmy had a lot of experience with the world and he wanted no part of it anymore.

He was trying his best to be an honorable man after two decades of being outside the law. He’d stolen things. He’d killed people in the name of survival. He’d helped other men do horrible things. But now he was keeping his head down and trying to live under the radar. It wasn’t his fault that Oscar needed someone to show him right from wrong, give him something to eat on the regular and try to keep him out of trouble, so he didn’t end up making a mess of his life the way Jimmy had. Maybe that was what being a good man was all about.

Except the things Jimmy wanted from this twenty-one-year-old man were far from respectable, and he couldn’t stop thinking about them, especially when Oscar Yates of the big brown eyes, cackle of a laugh and insatiable appetite for anything grilled over an open fire insisted on pushing all his buttons.

How was Jimmy going to last the 760 miles to Port Essington without giving in to those needs Oscar called to with the hint of a smile and a smart-assed curse? Because if Jimmy did give in, it would mean both of them living outside the law and never having the chance at a decent life again.

My review: 

Listen to me. If me, who doesn't like historical AND/OR western and cowboy settings, could LOVE this book, then anything is possible.

Anyway, I'm starting to believe that if a certain author comes and writes in the genre I don't like, then my opinion always changes. I started this book with a really positive and good feeling, and I was right, because this story is phenomenal. Loved it from start to finish. And when I discovered it isn't a standalone!!!Although I'm not sure if the next book is with the same couple (I hope!!) or not?

Although I loved the book, I think the title isn't the best? I mean it wouldn't catch my eyes if I didn't know about the author first. The cover though, that's great! And the cover alone would have been enough to stop me from reading it (since I don't like cowboys), but please, don't be like me, even if you're like me and don't like western or historical, becuase this book is a GEM! So, so good, and so much more then you'd think. 

The romance part was lovely, it wasn't rushed, it was perfectly built and so beautiful. The sexy times were super hot and so long, wow! I really love how the author writes kink and sex, it seems easy and so real. 

Really loved this book and I think everyone NEEDS to read it. Be a historical lover or not, this book is special and unique. One of my favorite read this year, that's for sure. 

HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
