Jake Goodall is a Texas bull rider who’s used to keeping his preference for men under wraps. Brent Miller is as wealthy New York businessman who has never had to hide who he is from anyone. When Brent’s car breaks down in Jake’s hometown, the two of them begin a romance that might be hazardous to their health, in more ways than one. Danger lurks in the small minds of folks who’d rather not see Jake and Brent together, and sooner or later, fists are going to fly.
From the prairies of Texas to the bright lights of New York and back again, from western rodeos to big city gay bars to a courtroom in Dallas, Jake and Brent try to work through all their problems despite the hostilities all around them. Jake knows he’s got it bad when he stays with Brent through thick and thin, but can the bull rider from the Lone Star State and the businessman from New York buck the odds to stay together?
This is a previously published title. The publisher has changed.

The way the two main characters meet in this book is very believable, but everything after that is delusional. Despite the fact that I found these two utterly incompatible with each other, I continued to read because the book is not poorly written, it is just incredibly unlikely to happen. The characters are even likable, and if one can disregard the somewhat ridiculous circumstances that make these two a couple, one can actually enjoy the novel. I will agree though with one other reviewer in stating that the epilogue was completely unnecessary.Product details

Riding Heartbreak Road edition by Kiernan Kelly Romance eBooks Reviews
This is overall a fine piece of writing and I enjoy it. The story is more a M/M romance than erotica. There is a solid plot here but a trifle melodramatic and unrealistic in some parts. I expect the attraction and sex to be almost immediate in an M/M but surely to be in love with someone from an entirely different world with illy matched IQs/mentalities just after 2 days is not very credible.
Afterall Brent is the filthy rich, well educated executive from New York with a well entrenched lifestyle and comfortable with who he is while Jake is a poor, simple and closeted cowboy. However this is romance and incredibility is expected.
The hate crime, Brent and Jake coping with it is well told but I have to wince at the melodrama in the court.
While Jake's devotion to Brent during Brent's recovery and his courage to come out is heartwarming, I do prefer my cowboy to be more "alpha".
But my real issue with this story is the epilogue. I have a terrible tendency of going to the last page first and I guess this somehow could have resulted in a tougher criticism of this M/M.
However Kiernan Kelly is one fine writer and I will read any M/M from her.
Jake Goodall is a bull rider. Jake is gay but very in the closet. No one, not even his family knows he's gay. After leaving the rodeo one night feeling good about making it into the finals, Jake heads to the Lobo for a drink and hopefully some companionship for the night. Brent Miller is a rich businessman heading to a big deal in Dallas when his car breaks down. He ends up in the Lobo trying to relax after his frustrating day. Brent and Jake meet and they end up riding off to have a good time alone together.
There are a lot of differences between Jake and Brent. Careers, money, lifestyle plus the fact that Brent is openly gay. Even though they haven't known each other long, a strong connection is forming between the men. Jake's not willing to chance losing his career and family by coming out. Things change when he almost loses Brent and now Brent and Jake have even more challenges to face.
Riding Heartbreak Road is the perfect title for this angst filled story. Jake and Brent go through the pain of injury and intolerance as well as the joy of unconditional love and acceptance. I love the instant and deep attraction Jake and Brent have for each other; they are very loving and passionate men. Riding Heartbreak Road is an emotional story with an incredibly moving ending that left me speechless.

Honestly, RIDING HEARTBREAK ROAD is incredibly far fetched. Its premise is highly improbable and the plot veers toward hand wrenching melodrama. But if you're looking for something to completely lose yourself in for a couple of hours I predict you'll enjoy this book. The situations are over the top, the passion is fierce, and the sex is hot.
Jake Goodall is a poor Texas cowboy with dreams of riding bulls on the pro rodeo circuit. He's in his early twenties, and good looking, but he's stuck in the little hamlet of Stillwater, working in his fathers feed store. He rides bulls at small county fair rodeos and does his best to keep his homosexuality a secret.
Brent Miller is a New York computer whiz. He's only a few years out of college, openly gay, has his own software business, and is extremely wealthy. Brent has a deep fear of flying, however, so he drives his BMW to Dallas, where he's going to sign a lucrative new contract. Thinking he's found a shortcut on his map, Brent leaves the interstate, gets hopelessly lost on bad country roads, and breaks down in Stillwater.
Told it will take several days to fix his car, Brent checks into the town's only motel, a real flea bag, and decides to kill time checking out the seedy honky-tonk located a brief walk away. The crowd spots him for an out-of-towner, and steers clear of him. When Jake sees the newcomer across the bar, he's immediately attracted, approaches Brent, and before you know it, the two are headed out by the river for a quick and private campsite hookup.
Not surprisingly, it's love at first sight for the cowboy and the city slicker, and Brent is quick to start devising plans that will keep them together. But our boys haven't been as discreet as they thought they'd been, and local homophobes are quick to attack Brent. Seeing Brent unconscious in the hospital, Jake vows to stay forever by his side.
This all happens in the space of a few days, and sets the ground work for the rest of the story. It's not exactly plausible I suppose, but so what? RIDING HEARTBREAK ROAD is a romantic fantasy, and it doesn't pretend to be otherwise. It may not be a literary masterpiece, but it's a well spun yarn and a nice example of good old fashioned story telling.
As a final note, the title of the book is HEARTBREAK ROAD, but the first bull Brent watches Jake ride, a bull referred to several times through the course of the story, is named Heartache Road. I found this discrepancy to be rather odd.
The way the two main characters meet in this book is very believable, but everything after that is delusional. Despite the fact that I found these two utterly incompatible with each other, I continued to read because the book is not poorly written, it is just incredibly unlikely to happen. The characters are even likable, and if one can disregard the somewhat ridiculous circumstances that make these two a couple, one can actually enjoy the novel. I will agree though with one other reviewer in stating that the epilogue was completely unnecessary.
