"Probst captures the textured atmosphere and characterization found in traditional vintage westerns by focusing on a naive young man as he first experiences the beauty and dangers of the West." - Impressions of a Reader
''...This book has the warm, technicolour feel of one of John Ford's later films. The author admits to being a fan of the big Hollywood films, and if you are too, you will love this, because there are touches of them all here. You can feel the sun beating on your neck, the tamed frontier towns, the grit from the summer heat, and the fresh wind of a stranger who blows into town...'' - Erastes, author of Standish and I Knew Him
"This is an enjoyable debut novel overall. Romanticized, perhaps, but it’s still a good escape and, for younger gay readers, a much-needed addition to a genre in which they’ve long been underrepresented." - Hayden Thorne for Speak Its Name

by Jon Wilson
On a scorching day in 1903 the sheriff of Creek County, Eugene Grey, finds himself partnered with feisty young Federal Marshal Forest O'Rourke. The marshal is hell-bent on capturing a wanted man—a man Eugene knows as nothing but an amiable old geezer living quietly in the hills.
But all is not as it seems--as the manhunt progresses, Eugene discovers the true nature of the marshal’s relationship to the old man. And Eugene finds it impossible to deny the desire he feels toward the determined young marshal. Death and fiery destruction follow, but also passion and stolen moments of joy. Eugene’s journey takes him from his small town of Canyon Creek, Colorado, to the stately homes of Atlanta and Philadelphia. But it also pits him against the very laws he has sworn to uphold. He finds himself risking prison or even death—all in the name of love.
Jon Wilson is an author with varied interests: historical fiction, fantasy, even the occasional murder-mystery. Likewise, he’s dabbled in assorted careers -- from fast food server to professional wrestler (with modeling, construction, and lots and lots of retail thrown in the middle). Something of a nomad, he’s lived in several states and a few foreign countries.
