[The Watty's 2023 Shortlist]

When a young cowboy comes to corn country, all he's looking for is a paycheck and a man he used to know. After searching up and down the heartland, what he finds is a small town that has its own bad memories of cowboys, and a farmer and his son who won't hold that against him. With no money and no leads, he takes a job with the Walker men, Alan, and his father Noah, for the season, expecting nothing more than a place to rest his head for the summer. 

But when twenty-five-year-old Ray comes into twenty-one-year-old Alan's life, the younger man's world suddenly opens up with possibilities. After spending his whole life tucked away on his family farm, Ray is unlike anyone he'd ever known, and with new experiences come new feelings. Alan begins to think of things beyond the farm, but when the man Ray is looking for suddenly shows up, Alan is suddenly faced with the idea that Ray may not be in his future at all.  

Who will stay and who will go?

Life is about to get real complicated on the farm.

**PREQUEL TO "COWBOY UP (COWBOY GANGSTER SHORT STORY)"** Heff Wilder's world is shattered when he receives word that his sister and brother-in-law, Mandy and Frank Zayne, have died in a car accident. Since the death of their parents when Heff was ten, Heff and Mandy were each other's rocks. Now, at just twenty-one, Heff suddenly feels lost and alone. Things get worse when he learns of a special clause inserted into Mandy and Frank's will concerning their horse ranch: Heff must live on the property and run the ranch with Frank's younger brother, Garland-or the ranch will be turned over to the state to be auctioned off. Five years ago, Heff fled the ranch to get away from Garland Zayne. How could he go back now and live with the one man who had hurt him most? Garland Zayne is shocked-and infuriated-by the unexpected clause in his brother's will. Garland had busted his back right alongside Frank to build the ranch up from nothing-the ranch should have rightfully gone to him. Focusing on his anger and confusion over the ranch distracted him from the unbearable loss of his big brother and the woman who had loved him like a sister. An avoidable loss that he caused-at least, that's what he believes. And now, amidst his grief, guilt, and anguish, he is forced to confront a troubling, painful past as well-in Heff Wilder. Facing the young man after five years stirs up memories both good and bad, but mostly bad as he can't forget how he wronged the boy-then turned on him, causing Heff to flee his presence and never return to the ranch. Until now. Now, Heff and Garland must learn to work together or lose the ranch. But before that can happen, they must confront the past... and that one night that ruined everything.

That is, until the house across the street from him is sold to a strange man from the city. Moving from the big city to the middle of nowhere is a big change for Spencer. His purpose for being there, he'd rather keep that a secret. But when he lays eyes on the hunky man across the street, Spencer knows that this move will be far from boring.
