I've been on a romance slump for my last couple of reads. Books I thought would've been 4 stars or higher that ended up not measuring up so this was even more of a delight. I think I love Queer romances because it's harder.. not harder to love but harder because of outside sources fighting against you... and a cowboy romance there's definitely going to be people who don't want to see you together. This was sweet and sexy (but not overdone). Definitely some hard topics with bullying and lack of parental support plagued Hugo but that was nicely balanced by the Woods family. The audiobook narration was okay (wasn't thrilled with "Hugo's" voice ) and some overreaction on the voicing. This book definitely served its purpose of bringing me out of my romance slump.

3.75 stars
