So, " 0 prequel " sorts by 0 under the label "prequel. Series was designed to cover groups of books generally understood as such see Wikipedia: Like many concepts in the book world, "series" is a somewhat fluid and contested notion. A good rule of thumb is that series have a conventional name and are intentional creations , on the part of the author or publisher. For now, avoid forcing the issue with mere "lists" of works possessing an arbitrary shared characteristic, such as relating to a particular place. Avoid series that cross authors, unless the authors were or became aware of the series identification eg.
Also avoid publisher series, unless the publisher has a true monopoly over the "works" in question. So, the Dummies guides are a series of works.

Jan 18, Christy rated it really liked it Shelves: I would've loved to have seen more, but had to be content with a short story. Matt is adorable and wonderful, whereas Josh is the epitome of the "I'm really confused about my sexuality" cowboy. This was an entertaining read.
Feb 18, Madison Parker rated it it was amazing Shelves: Two men, alone in the mountains. Stolen glances and naughty thoughts lead to sexy times. What's not to love? Yes, I did find it unbelievable that Matt recognized Josh from the porno, given that Josh never showed his face in the flick. He should have at least had a tattoo. I also found it unbelievable that Matt could pick up on Josh's emotional experience in said porno without having seen his face.
He has exceptional body-language reading skills! I also had to laugh when the condoms and lube were within easy reach. Gay men are always super prepared. You never know who you're going to meet on a guided expedition in the mountains!! However, I am willing to overlook all of that because these men were just the right mix of sweet and sexy.
This was a 4 star read right up to the last sentence where it abruptly ended with no satisfying resolution I don't mean that I have to have everything wrapped up to garner satisfaction, but I do expect a little bit of tidying up Jan 01, Julianna rated it really liked it Recommends it for: Straight Cowboy is a contemporary about two young men who are on a trail ride in search of a band of wild horses.
City boy Matt is hoping to do a little first hand research and photograph the horses for a book he's writing. Josh is a cowboy, working for the trail riding outfit Matt hired to lead him into the wilderness. Josh is also on a personal journey to accepting who he truly is. He's always considered himself straight, but in need of some quick cash, had participated in the production of a gay porn film the previous year.
When he starts having lustful feelings toward his guest, Josh is confused, so him finally accepting that he's gay is a gradual process throughout the entire story. I admired Josh for his commitment to his family. He seemed to be the sole provider for an elderly grandmother and a half-brother who he had only recently found out about, because the boy had been in foster care. I would have loved to have seen some actual interactions with his family, but I got enough hints from the narrative to know that he was an upstanding young man who cared about them very much.
Matt is a well-adjusted gay man from an affluent and accepting family, and as such, we don't learn as much about him as an individual.
I did like that he had an awestruck appreciation for the wild horses and that he didn't seem to mind being out in the wilderness. Having seen the porn film Josh was in, Matt doesn't understand at first why he's fighting their attraction, but once he figures it out, Matt becomes more patient with Josh. Overall, I thought they were a well matched couple whose love scenes are frequent and ultra-steamy. However, even though they didn't overtly declare their love, they were both thinking that they were falling in love and entertaining the idea of a longer-term commitment once the trail ride was over, which was perhaps a tad too quick to be entirely believable.
Straight Cowboy had a few other minor issues. First, I thought it stretched the bounds of credibility a little to have Matt recognize Josh from the porn movie since he'd only been filmed from behind. I think this would have been a lot more believable if Josh had some sort of distinctive mark like a birthmark or tattoo or at the very least something unique about his physiology. The editing also could have been a bit better as the author occasionally uses some awkward wording that doesn't always flow well.
Lastly, the majority of the story is told in relatively small snippets with the scenes changing pretty frequently, leaving me feeling like there were gaps in the narrative. I would have loved to read a longer story about these two men with more of those breaks filled in and more getting-to-know-you and romantic moments to make their growing love more plausible.
However, despite it's weaknesses, I can't deny that it was an appealing story. I liked both heroes, especially Josh, because he embodies a sweet honesty in his struggles. Straight Cowboy was my first read by Jan Irving, but it has definitely left me open to trying more of her work and continuing with this series.
Straight Cowboy can be purchased as a stand-alone e-book novella and in print as part of the multi-author anthology, Saddle Up 'N Ride or the single author anthology, Uncommon Cowboys: This book contains scenes of explicit sensuality between two men which may offend some readers. Sep 27, Alina rated it it was amazing.
Very sweet book about deaf city guy, who wanted to see mustangs in their natural habitat, and his shy cowboy guide. Nice and heartwarming short story: Dec 07, Aymee rated it really liked it Shelves: Cute but short story about a confused cowboy and an openly gay tourist. I liked the idea of the story but think it could have been fleshed out a bit more. Overall, worth the read. It felt like there was a chapter or two missing from the end of the book. Aug 26, Nicole rated it liked it. Characters are enjoyable to read.
Quick 50 page read. Straight Cowboy brings together two men from completely different backgrounds and life styles. Josh is a cowboy who professes to be straight and Matt a city boy who is gay and has set his sights on Josh. Josh is one cowboy Matt has no attentions of letting ride off into the sunset. I just loved the character of Josh.
