It's low-key but I felt good after reading it. Weber helps Cyrus' nephews a lot. He becomes the rock that they all lean on. One of the boys cannot talk due to trauma but Weber gets through to him and gets him. The younger boys take immediately to Weber. He is calm. Cyrus' family comment how different Cyrus is with Weber. I liked that they could see it and comment on it. I look forward to more stories by this author. (  ) Sheila1957 | Oct 27, 2023 | weber (which i seriously keep wanting to pronounce weeber) is a rodeo cowboy who, other than going from rodeo to rodeo, has only held part time or seasonal work. he meets cyrus, a neurosurgeon from san fransisco when he is working at a dude ranch for a summer. cyrus and weber have an instant connection, and every time weber is near san fransisco he stops in to see cyrus, but weber doesn't feel as though he could stay with cyrus for long because his appeal is the fact that he leaves. this time, though, weber has decided that he can't rodeo anymore, and he's headed to alaska for a job. he stops by on the way through and falls into the middle of a domestic crisis. cyrus' sister's husband has just run off with their nanny, leaving her desperate for help, because her boys have time off over christmas. when she sees how good weber is with the boys, she asks him to be her nanny for a couple of weeks until they go back to school. weber gets introduced to cyrus' family and feels as though it will be harder to leave this time around, especially since he's staying longer than he ever has before. as cyrus and weber come to realize what they are both doing to hurt each other, their relationship starts to grow. what i liked: i liked that weber was a natural with the children, and that he was himself around them. i also liked that his attention was always focused on the children when he was in the same vicinity as they were, even though it wasn't his job to be looking after them at that time. i also liked that he opened cyrus up, and that cyrus softened him up. what i didn't like: that weber seemed to take over in the parent department at the end; that their mother didn't seem to have a clue what was going on. (  ) mamawerewolf | Jun 26, 2023 | ) terriaminute | Dec 4, 2022 | Yeah, yeah Weber is über perfect but dang I want me one just like him! And I really liked Web and Cy together. They brought out the best in each other. I absolutely loved Cy's family's reaction to him around Web. Yup, a definite comfort read from now on! :) ( ) Bookbee1 | Jun 23, 2020 | nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Weber Yates ha sempre sognato di diventare un professionista del rodeo, ma si ritrova a lavorare come garzone in un ranch in Texas. La sua unica relazione #65533; con un uomo completamente diverso da lui, cos#65533; al di fuori della sua portata che, fosse stato sulla luna, sarebbe stato pi#65533; vicino. O a San Francisco, dove Weber si ferma per salutarlo un'ultima volta, prima di cercare di sistemarsi e di vivere una vita umile e solitaria, proprio come quella - pensa lui - di un ranocchio. Cyrus Benning #65533; un neurochirurgo di successo che non si fa sfuggire un solo dettaglio. Ha messo gli occhi sul principe, vestito da povero cowboy, sin dall'inizio. Ma ogni volta che Weber se ne va, si fa sempre pi#65533; difficile per Cyrus, che non sa fino a che punto il suo cuore potr#65533; resistere. Ora il dottore ha un'ultima possibilit#65533; per dimostrare a Weber che non #65533; certo il suo lavoro a renderlo l'uomo perfetto per lui, bens#65533; Weber stesso. Con l'aiuto di sua sorella e della sua famiglia in pezzi, Cyrus #65533; pronto a dimostrare a Weber che la casa e la vita che ha sempre cercato sono l#65533; con lui, davanti ai suoi occhi. Cyrus gli ha dato un ultimatum, una volta, #65533; vero, ma ora questo si #65533; trasformato in un voto solenne: non lascer#65533; che Weber esca dalla sua vita, mai pi#65533;.

I really, really liked this. It totally hit my angst buttons of want, desire, insecurity and doubt. I also admit that though not much happens, I was perfectly ok with that. As I've said about past Calmes books, I appreciate stories depicting couples in their every day lives - it must be my love of epilogues because it was so enjoyable watching these two care for each other despite Weber's stubbornness.
How do two individuals reconcile their very disparate lives? Their relationship over the years was tender and heartbreaking. It killed me how much Weber loved Cyrus but would not allow himself to have him, thinking his blue collar, cowboy roots would never measure up. And I felt for Cyrus, pining away for every scrap Weber would deign to give of himself.
This was hot and full of emotions - I'm seriously basking in the joy of this story! (
