Belt Buckles and Cowboy Boots

Lessons learned from past betrayals can protect Colby Vincent's heart or cost him a chance at happiness he never thought to have. Colby thought he'd never let anyone close again after being betrayed by everyone he loved, but one closeted, stubborn oilfield worker with a penchant for dressing like a cowboy seems determined to out himself and win Colby's heart. It's as if Hunter Talamentez walked right out of Colby's fantasies and into the convenience store where Colby works. But Hunter is closeted, and he's never considered changing that. He's got his homophobic cousin with him, a family that he knows won't support him if they know the truth about who he is and a job where being out could get him hurt. He resigned himself to spending his life alone until he gets to know Colby. Then he embarks on a journey with Colby that will change their lives if only they both find the strength to take a few chances. Nothing comes easily, and learning to give from the heart when that heart has been shattered twice before might be more than Colby is capable of. He isn't sure about having more than a fling with Hunter, yet he can't seem to stay away from the man, either. What was meant to be one night together turns into more, and Colby loses his ability to keep Hunter at the safe distance he'd wanted.
