My Only Sunshine (Paperback, New edition)

Tanner Wallis is nearly at the end of his rope the night Mason Seidel finds him lying next to the mangled body of a cow on the back pastures of the Seidel family's Wyoming ranch. Recently out of the hospital after he and his boyfriend were brutally beaten, Tanner is jobless, homeless, and almost penniless. His desperate hope is that Mason will believe he s innocent of the senseless crime and give him a place to heal, both physically and emotionally, until he can get on his feet again.

But Mason already has enough on his plate. He's only been back on the ranch a few months, ten years after his father kicked him out for being gay, and only because his sister begged him to come help after the man's disabling stroke. With all his responsibilities running the struggling ranch and keeping his sister and father off his back Mason can't really afford the distraction Tanner represents. But he can't just abandon the attractive young man either. There s trouble in spades on the ranch, but if they face it together, Mason and Tanner might find a future with a little sunshine.
