Cowboy Heart — Lynn Hagen

Noah Cross grew up in Lamont's Trailer Heaven, a place that is nothing but hell for him. The park is drug-infested and any sane man's worst nightmare. Noah wants more out of life. He wants a man who can show him what it really means to be loved. When he meets Jedediah Gibbs, Noah falls head over heels in lust. The problem is, Jed won't give him the time of day. Having been scorned once already, Jed has sworn off love. He wants nothing to do with Noah or the human's infatuation toward him. Unfortunately, fate has other plans. When Jed buys a gas station, Noah presents an offer Jed can't refuse. Life in Bear County is getting exceedingly complicated. The harder Jed pushes Noah away, the more attracted he is to the man. But it takes Noah nearly dying for Jed to finally let down his guard and allow himself to love again.
