    About this ebook

    Two brothers, one popular with the girls and one not. One gay, and one straight. Of course, it was Wade, the older gay brother, who was chased by girls and poor straight Shane who was unlucky and alone.

    Forced by their father to be dude ranch tour guides, Wade and Shane endure an unending stream of male and female tourists with no action. That is, until the latest group arrives and the barn promptly burns down, creating a mixed bag of instant heroes -- straight, gay, lesbian, transgender.

    After the horses are saved and the fire burns itself out, everyone -- gay and straight -- pair off for the night, leaving a very frustrated and drunk Shane alone in his car. A drunken night ride may change his life forever. Love or death? What lies along those old dirt roads? Love or death?

    Emery C. Walters

    Emery C. Walters was born Carol Forde, a name he soon knew didn’t fit the boy he was inside. Transition was unknown back then, so he married and then bore and raised four children. When his youngest child, his gay son, left home, Emery told Carol that she had to step aside, and he fully transitioned from female to male in 2001.

      Shane’s Ride

      By Emery C. Walters

      Wade was so smooth, his admiring little brother called him Suede. Of course, Wade was twenty-four and Shane, A.K.A little bro, was only twenty. But, oh, did Shane admire the way the ladies fell for Wade, left, right, and straight off the back end of their horses. On purpose, Shane knew, because he was invisible to women, and they talked about how sexy Wade was right in front of him.

      What irritated the shit out of Shane was the fact that he was so much better looking. Wade had brown goofy, spiky hair and deep brown eyes and a bit of a lisp. He, Shane, was blond, his hair curled nicely, and his eyes were deep ocean blue. It wasn’t fair, and he hated it.

      Shane had been studying his brother since he first caught up to him, sort of, as a freshman in high school. Wade was a senior then. As far as he could tell, Wade had the top seat on the pedestal; the gold in the triumvirate of the Olympics of high school idols. And yet, Wade never got anyone pregnant, at least, none had ever come crying to his parents. Wade went to parties and dances, but never got home after curfew. Sure, Shane found condoms in his older brother’s drawer, but he never found panties or rings from some girl. Shane never had lipstick on his collar.

      Man, if some gorgeous girl let him date or kiss her, Shane would never wash his shirt collars again. He’d have lipstick stains all over his face, shirt and pants, if… well, a boy can dream, he thought. Unfortunately, he also remembered the one girlfriend he did have, Molly B. Her name was Lillian Brown, but she went by Molly not because she did drugs, but because she was built like the locally infamous Molly B., a cow that got loose downtown years ago when they were in grade school. Still, she went to the
