Bull rider Roper Vales isn’t sure what to do with himself when a broken ankle sidelines him mid-season, but after a very short visit, he knows it’s not going to be staying with his twin brother Ryder. Roper is proud and stubborn and despite his injury, he’s still intending to get back on a bull. Ryder has a softer life now that Roper can’t even begin to understand. So when Ryder’s lover Charles calls in some help in the form of a bossy and gorgeous man, Roper decides to see where it takes him.
Professor Toby Tyler has been warned that Roper’s a brat and needs a firm hand. He’s interested in exploring a lifestyle relationship with this strikingly beautiful man, but what he finds is that Roper needs much more. The cowboy needs to believe he deserves the good things in life. Toby is determined to help in every way, and soon finds himself falling for this complex, mercurial man.
Roper, though, has trouble opening up and sharing his life, trouble shaking off past failed relationships, and trouble fighting the urge to run when things get hard. Can he and Toby find steady ground to make a life together, or will Roper be gone before they can admit how they feel about each other?
Gemini: Roper is an opposites attract, hurt/comfort, D/s, power exchange romance featuring a bull rider and college professor.
