“Levi huffed and turned on the saddle, but before he did, a flicker passed across his face, one that did more than hint to Pasha that maybe the cowboy was into guys. He struggled for something to say or ask that wasn’t sarcastic or inappropriate. It was unusual for him to be short of words, though they were rarely the right words.
Ah shit. What was the point? The pair of them hated one another. Well, not hated, not on Pasha’s side. More lust than hate, and apart from that comeback about zombies, Levi had resumed his uptight attitude.
Pasha knew he looked like a total bottom and the preconception irritated the fuck out of him. Yeah, he was more of a bottom than a top—how he hated those terms because of what they implied—but he didn’t like being taken for granted.
It stopped snowing just as the ranch came into view.
“How did you know I’d gone?”
“You weren’t where you were supposed to be.”
“You missed me? Ahhh.”
Levi’s exasperated exhalation made Pasha smile. Time to mend a few bridges.
“I’m sorry to be an inconvenience. I didn’t mean to wander so far.

Résumé
When you stand on the edge, you might just find yourself falling.
Teaching Russians how to be cowboys? Levi thinks his father is joking when he tells him that’s what he wants him to do for the next six months. Working in the frozen desolation of southwest Russia he’ll earn enough to buy a new barn for their Montana ranch. But there’s a deeper agenda for sending him to the edge of nowhere. It will stop him sloping off on Saturday nights to gay bars and clubs for threesomes with strangers.
Pasha finally pushes his father too far and is banished to a remote ranch in the middle of a snowy Russian winter. Stripped of all the trappings of his privileged Moscow lifestyle, he has nothing at his disposal but a suitcase of designer clothes and a whole lot of sass. Pasha hates the countryside, hates physical work, hates the cold and hates cows. But de-prived of money, phone, and access to anyone who might help him, he’s screwed and not in a good way.
Levi’s counting down the days till he can return to the States and his Saturday night hook-ups. Then Pasha arrives at the ranch wearing eyeliner, retching every time he walks into a barn, and Levi is amused, irritated—and attracted. After a vicious attack on Pasha throws them into close quarters, both men are forced to re-evaluate not just who the other is, but whether they truly want to return to the lives they left behind.
When you stand on the edge, you just might find yourself falling in love.
