A twenty-year veteran of the shearing shed, Aussie Shane Cooper loves his job, and the home he's made for himself in New Zealand. If he's a little lonely, he's got good mates to keep his spirits up. When a hot, cocky young shearer named Lachlan Moore catches his eye at a competition, he's content to look but not touch, knowing the young man is out of his league. Lachie wouldn't mind a piece of Shane, but the gorgeous gun shearer from Australia is soon forgotten when the Christchurch earthquake hits, and tragedy strikes Lachie's family. Lachie deals with it the best he can, cutting himself off from all he knows. A year later and he's back in the shearing shed, out of practice and lacking confidence. That Shane's there to watch him flounder doesn't help his nerves. As Lachlan struggles to re-acclimatise, Shane can't resist giving him a hand to get back on his feet. As they move from friends to something more, Shane finds himself wanting to know everything he can about Lachie. But Lachie's got secrets he desperately wants to keep, and when things come to a head, those secrets might just mean the end of them before they've truly begun.

This was a slow burn. A smoldering slow burn mind you, but still a snail's pace at the romantic progression. So if you don't like that kind of build up, then this story isn't for you. It also had a lot of angst as you can imagine - and I typically like this kind where there was so much longing. Longing to be loved and to love. Longing to want more but afraid to push too hard. Longing for a past that will never be again. There was also fear of further loss, insecurity, and the misinterpretations from not communicating.
So yes, the angst was palpable. Not only was it between these two men but also about Lachlan's own unfortunate situation. He definitely carries the burden of taking care of his family and there was a lot of guilt, personal grief and resignation concerning the weight of his responsibilities.
Overall the chemistry between Lachlan and Shane was seriously high. It starts off with UST that was off the charts. Then the sweet, frantic coming together was oh so lovely, and your heart continually gets twisted watching the push/pull of them handling or not handling each other and their feelings. Despite the oft painful journey, their love story was beautiful and I whole heartedly believe so very worth it. ( )
