This was an interesting fantasy cowboy novel. I enjoyed the world building and the characters drew me in. However, I just didn't connect with it as much I as I usually do with Marie Sexton's books. Also, while I can truly enjoy m/m/m it felt odd within this story. Aren had been so jealous earlier and they had never talked about it before and Deacon was so self-contained that it just didn't feel like something any of the characters would really want a part of. Granted, I didn't create the characters so I guess I can't judge. Despite that one scene, I really enjoyed it. 4 stars.
