Ride 'em cowboy! That's what you'll be shouting once you've read the Cowboy Up anthology. Editor Rob Knight has gathered a great selection of cowboy stories from authors like Sean Michael, BA Tortuga and Parehlion, featuring cowboys from around the globe and across more than a hundred years. These stories all illustrate the best and worst of the breed. Stubborn, independent, and sexy as all get out, the cowboys of Cowboy Up will leave you smiling, sometimes crying, but always admiring the tough, rugged man that rides the range and keeps his bedroll warm at night. There are modern day rodeo cowboys intent on winning the Calgary stampede and proud gauchos in Argentina. There are old west partners out to transport some dusty old bones and a mail order bride with a twist. Always unpredictable and a little wild, just like the cowboy himself, these stories will leave you wishing you had a pair of spurs and a ten gallon hat. Get yourself a cowboy today!… (más)
I read this anthology many years ago; I'm sure it was my first LGBTQA anthology; I have no idea why I didn't register on GR. I'll fix that in the next few days. There is one of the stories I remembered perfectly: My problem is that I hated the resolution of the story, and still do; BUT it was an unforgettable read, and that dichotomy makes me insecure about how to rate it (I'm talking about 1 star or 5 stars, go figure!). I need to think about it.

Stormclouds by Dallas Coleman - 3.5 stars Contemporary; Established relationship
Added Money by Chris Owen - 4 stars Contemporary; Rodeo
Dry Bones by Parhelion - 3 stars Historical; Hidden Identity
The Good Life By Sean Michael - 2 stars Contemporary This is the story I was talking about above. Upon reflection, the unsatisfactory resolution seems unnecessary to me. While I don't doubt that there must have been cases where the inhibition to carry out a relationship must have been absolute. In this case, I don't see that choice as reasonable; since they are roommates, nothing prevents the existence of public life and private life."

Surrender by Jourdan Lane - 2.5 stars Coworkers; Roommates; Since Forever; Friends to Lovers
