Wanted by Vic Winter

[reviews_and_ramblings]

This story has a contemporary setting, but it could be well set 100 years before and it would be the same, since things have not changed much in the country.

Justice has a little ranch and little money. He makes ends meet, but barely; his life is not bad, when the season is good he can manage also some extra, but most of the time, he is only him and his farm animals. Justice is gay, but in an isolated ranch near a very small town USA, he can only limit himself to watch the bullriders on saturday afternoon show television and dream of them at night.

Then Tuck knocks at his doors: tall, handsome and good at work, Tuck is a drifter who works for a roof and a meal. Roof and meal Justice can share, and he is more than willing to share also his bed when he realizes that Tuck is interested, but Justice tries to not being used to have Tuck around, since, sooner or later, he will go. And how he can not? What can draw Tuck to remain? Justice has a bit of self-esteem problem, he doesn't see what he can be for Tuck, home, partner and love all together.

The story is pretty and not very long, 52 pages/20.000 words. Justice and Tuck love and sex is easy and simple like the life they have; no impossible dreams of endless and repeated sex in the barn, no Justice who suddenly became a sex pro when having a man beside; Justice and Tuck work and love and work, and sometime they are too tired to love. As always this life fascinates me, since for my culture is something long ago forgotten.
