Journey to Salvation

   (7 reviews)

Set in The Old West, we come upon Moss and Link, two men at a precipice in their young lives. Monsters, real or imagined, come in all forms. Perhaps the most dangerous kind are the real ones, people who believe they have the right, for whatever reason, to abuse and control through fear. When innocence is viciously taken, it can be a long road back to trusting, both yourself and others. 

This story contains some sexual content, as well as different forms of abuse. You will also find my version of 'western speak', which breaks many of the rules of grammar, tenses, and punctuation. It is a flavor I hope you can bear.

Headstall - the king of the old west. Reading this story makes me want to revisit Larkspur. Once again the author manages to transport the reader to a different time, a different world, with the exact same feelings and hardships we sometimes face today. Two men who share the same feelings finally manage to talk. In the end, is there anything better than open communication? Certainly not if the outcome is either a story like this, or a development like in this story. Thank you Headstall, your stories are always appreciated a lot.

Another amazing tale from GA's master of the western romance stories.  Moss and Lincoln (Link) are two teenage cowboys riding together because their destinations are fairly close to one another.  During the ride, they share stories about their lives, and it becomes clear that Moss has had it far worst than Link.  Their talks and confessions during their journey, along with unspoken tension, makes them rethink what they want out of life, but is it enough to make them change their plans?   You'll have to read this wonderful tale to find out, and I'm sure you'll be happy you made that decision after reading this short story.

Short, sweet and to the point.... used to like dates like that (`cept for the short part) every now and then. Yep, WOOF.

Headstall is.. a straight shooter, a guys guy. Not ashamed but possibly bashful are his characters. He can paint a picture in your mind of a hot lawman that always starts with the hat on his head. I was gone from here for almost a year, it was a joy to see this writers name pop into my email!

Think the Westerns started with "Sidewinder" him sharing his love for open lands, horses and good men, the order varies as the days do. He gets into the dialect of the characters which makes the read especially fun.

Now he does other genres too! First I heard of him was with "Cards on the Table" a great read for a rainy week. Like a tie-dyed Dead-Head I've read it thrice now!

Geeze I'm ramblin' tonight... BOC's Secret Treaties is shaking my home!

Leather & packed jeans, can imagine the musk now
