Artist and former actor turned Midwestern country boy, Dixon Pierce, has fallen head over heels in love with cowboy Gray McKeever at Glock Ranch in Stockton County. The two cowboys plan to get married, with an extraordinary wedding service and reception to follow. While Dixon works on art, Gray runs a hot sauce company called Roping Cowboys in downtown Tulsa. Both are occupied with their careers, but always come together in the evening hours for some heavy-duty, cowboy romp-time between the sheets. But trouble lurks in their relationship when Dixon learns that Gray’s ex-boyfriends Toby wants to steal back the hot sauce creating cowboy. Then Dixon catches Gray and Toby in a compromising position, and all hell breaks loose. Dixon pulls himself away from his art and upcoming art show to try to rein in his cowboy and future husband. But Toby is not about to lose Gray a second time. Gray is torn between the two men. He loves Dixon, but seeing Toby again reignited the flame he once held. Will he be able to choose one cowboy over the other before Dixon and Toby come to blows over him?

Stockton County Cowboys Book 3: Roping Cowboys

How could I not be angry? What sane man would feel rational at that heart-mutilating scene? I screamed, “You’re right, it’s not good! What are you two doing here?”


I watch Gray search for a reply. Was he searching for the truth, or for a lie? He was giving me a helpless look even while I could see a reality check flash through his eyes. Perhaps he understood for the first time how he was hurting me. Maybe he realized that he was almost drunk and almost naked, and with Toby instead of me. Had a rational thought finally surfaced between his temples, making him realize that his drinking-and-underwear party for two was completely unacceptable? I could hear him sobering up as he said, “Nothing’s happening here, honestly.”


“You two are practically naked! It looks like you’re ready to fuck! Jesus Christ, Gray! Do you think I’m fucking stupid?”


“Dixon,” he whispered, looking shocked, “believe me, we’re just talking.”
