In the beginning, there was the world wide web and it was good. The internet engendered gay porn, which engendered male-male romance stories. Somewhere in between those two, Gabriel Morgan created Stonegate Stable--a love story with sizzling hot sex scenes. If explicit descriptions of intercourse between two or more men are not your thing, feel free to speed read through them; you'll cheat yourself but the remainder of the tale is worth it and can stand on its own.
To paraphrase Deadpool in his second movie: This story is all about the f-word. Family. A large cast of characters surrounds Sean, the main character, and the author takes us on a wild ride with them. Vincent and Matt are the other two stars of the novel and young Matt summarizes it best: “Your real family doesn’t have to be the one you were born into. Sometimes your friends love you more.” The characters and their actions are true to life and relatable. Many of us have found comfort, support, and sexual gratification amongst our friends
The ending is bittersweet and you may want to have a bandana handy to dab your eyes. Forget the tissues, this is a story about men and their horses. However, the tears are balanced by good writing and enough humor you will chuckle often. I've read this story at least three times and I'm certain I'll do it again. Once again, I was smiling when I was done reading.
