Calvin and Adam are spending all their time together living and loving, as they struggle to get the ranch ready for the coming influx of hunters intent of bagging a wild boar during one of Calvin’s hunting tours. They’re also working on a plan that would bring unsettled or disturbed veterans to the Texas ranch, allowing them the peace and quiet needed to heal from the problems they’ve brought home from overseas. Since it worked for Adam, they figure it would work for other men as well, and they’re determined to do all they can to help.
They have more than just the ranch and their recovery plans to deal with; there’s also their ever-changing and growing personal relationship. Then there’s Adam’s father, Billy. When he drops in at the ranch unexpectedly, he’s unhappy to find that his old friend, Calvin has become his twenty-one year-old son’s lover.
Recovery Ranch by CB Potts is the sequel to the shorter Spurs and Saddle release Recovery. This relationship is a true May/December romance, there being twenty-eight years between seasoned Calvin and the much younger and less experienced Adam. Ms. Potts does a nice job describing this gentle tale of love, growing and learning, as well as showing the mutual uncertainly of whether their love will last. Adam is afraid Calvin won’t want him for the long haul, and Calvin is afraid Adam will tire of him, finding love with someone closer to his own age.
The tale is set in the Texas backcountry and most of the time Calvin and Adam have only each other for companionship. That these two dissimilar men enjoy spending so much time together, should have been a telling sign that their relationship was rock solid. My favorite parts of the story were the boar hunting scenes, whether with Calvin and Adam alone, or those that included the troubled veterans. These scenes truly show the ability of the men to love and work together successfully, and Ms. Potts is spot-on in her heartfelt writing.
I’d love to know what Adam wrote to his mother, and I hope to find out in a future release featuring these two intriguing men.
