Un libro della Serie Assaggio d'amore

Per fare una piccola fortuna, inizia con una grande fortuna e apri un forno. Questo è il consiglio che Marcus Wilson ha ascoltato. Sfortunatamente, Marcus non ha una grande fortuna, ma solo un forno, Una Fetta di Paradiso, a Carlisle, Pennsylvania, e la determinazione per fare successo. Ha bisogno di più aiuto di quello che può permettersi, quindi, quando assume il contabile Gregory Southland, lo fa sia per il negozio sia per i libri contabili.

Gregory ha accettato un secondo lavoro per pagare le bollette, ora che la sua salute sta migliorando. Presto inizia a non vedere l’ora di passare più tempo con Marcus ma, quando gli affari e la loro relazione iniziano a crescere, compaiono delle complicazioni. Prima fra tutte, la matrigna di Marcus lo coinvolge in un caso che potrebbe dare al forno una fama che non merita. Inoltre, i due non sono d’accordo sul coinvolgere o meno Una Fetta di Paradiso in una disputa sui diritti civili. Per finire, il suo ex fa la sua apparizione quando lui è più vulnerabile. Ma la più grande battaglia di Marcus e Gregory sarà di imparare a fidarsi di se stessi e l’uno dell’altro, soprattutto quando devono trovare la ricetta per risolvere le questioni di cuore.

Storie della prateria: Libro 4

Il cantante western Willie Meadows è un impostore. Non è mai andato a cavallo in vita sua e i suoi abiti in stile “vecchio West” sono stati fatti su misura in una boutique di Los Angeles. Non c’è da stupirsi che Wilson Edwards, l’uomo dietro la maschera, non riesca più a scrivere musica. Nel tentativo di trovare l’ispirazione, Wilson compra un ranch in Wyoming per sperimentare la vita di campagna, pur non avendo la minima intenzione di gestirlo. Poi arriva Steve Peterson, disperato, affamato e solo, dopo essere scappato da un istituto per la “cura” degli omosessuali gestito dal culto di cui suo padre è il capo.

Steve avrebbe dovuto addestrare cavalli per la vecchia proprietaria del ranch, ma quell’offerta di lavoro se n’è andata assieme a lei. Per fortuna, Wilson trova una soluzione temporanea: Steve si occuperà del ranch mentre lui è a LA per affari. Ma al suo ritorno, Wilson fatica a riconoscere la sua nuova casa. Nei recinti ci sono dei cavalli addestrati e il ranch è in ottime condizioni. Improvvisamente, si ritrova affascinato, non dallo stile di vita dei cowboy, ma da Steve stesso.

Ma il culto è ancora alla ricerca di Steve e il timore di Wilson di suscitare uno scandalo ha fatto in modo che, finora, la sua omosessualità sia rimasta un segreto. Dichiararsi distruggerebbe la carriera di Willie, ma soffocare i suoi sentimenti nei confronti di Steve potrebbe distruggere l’unica parte di lui che ancora è autentica.
