Blurb: John Price and Conner Burnett have been
part of the Whispering Pines Ranch for the past thirty-seven years. A
loving couple who have overcome every obstacle thrown at them, John and
Conner are a testament to the strength of true love. But now John is in
the hospital with a diagnosis of cancer, fighting for his very life.
As his lover struggles, Conner looks back on when they first met.
The early seventies wasn’t an easy time to be a gay man, especially in a
small country town. Considering John’s pride, Conner’s need to be
himself, shame, bitterness, and two stubborn natures, their love story
almost wasn’t written. But they beat the odds, and Conner will be damned
if he’ll let anyone take John from him now. He had the courage to stand
up for what he wanted in 1974. If need be, he’ll go toe to toe with God
himself to keep the man he fought so hard to love.
Pixie Said!! "This is a wonderful story that gives us fans of Whispering Pines Ranch
the chance to get to know both Conner and John better, and also gives
us their romance from the very beginning. As John lies in his hospital
bed with Conner snuggled up against him, Conner takes us on the journey
of the beginning of their relationship and the courage both men had to
find to be the men that the other loved. Conner has already faced a lot
in his 29 years and is comfortable with whom he is. But, John in his 32
years has always played it safe. He doesn’t want to lose the respect of
the men around him. But when the two meet, they both have to make
choices until they reach an impasse and they both realise just what is
most important to them."
