Six bodies in a single grave, in the same West Texas country where Dakota left everything behind.

Every beat of my heart belongs to you.

Thirteen years ago, Dakota Jennings thought he'd found his forever when he fell in love with Shane Carson. But one afternoon shattered their love story, and both Dakota and Shane left Rustler, Texas, with broken hearts. Even now, Dakota is still feeling the agony of losing Shane. Sure, he's a Texas Ranger, but that's not how he wanted to live his life. All he ever wanted was to love Shane.

Loving you is the only time I feel alive.

Shane's life was supposed to be different. There had been a plan, ever since he was knee-high to his father. But falling for Dakota spun Shane's world upside down, and for years, Shane has had nothing but the memories of all that he lost: Dakota's gentle touch, and the sweetness of his lips, and the star-strewn nights they spent wrapped in each other's arms.

West of the Pecos, there is no law.

When the Rangers get the call about six bodies being pulled out of a mass grave in West Texas, the governor sends Dakota to run the investigation. Dakota heads back to his hometown and comes face-to-face with the last man he ever expected to see again, only now, he’s Deputy Shane Carson, Dakota's local partner assigned to the case.

There's nothing Dakota wants more than a second chance with Shane, but so much is stacked against them: six corpses, a murderer on the loose, and history that refuses to stay buried. And the bodies keep piling up as Dakota and Shane try to run the killer down across the West Texas plains.

In a moment, everything changes: the hunters become the hunted, the past fractures, and all Dakota thought he knew comes tumbling down. Secrets break wide open as Dakota remembers...

This is West Texas, and out here, nothing is as it seems. Big Bend County is a place of beauty and desolation, of secrets and small towns. Where the past and the present collide, and where nothing stays hidden forever.

This MM romantic suspense is the first in the new Big Bend Texas Rangers series. Come along for the West Texas sunsets, the heart-pounding thrills, and the hard-won happily-ever-afters.

This book delivers exactly what it promises and more!
The romance is sweet, angsty and hot.
The murder case works well as a backdrop for the love story for the most part, but then picks up surprisingly well in the later half.
The mixture of horny longing and gruesome serial killer investigation was a bit immersion breaking to me - but in a fun way!
I admire Tal Bauer's extremely efficient writing. He uses some tropes to get the job done but manages to tell the heart of the story rather densely. And he definitely knows how to pull at ones heartstrings.

Romance, suspense and an excellent speaker

The story follows deputy Shane Carson and Texas Ranger Dakota Jennings, who were secretly together in high school, broke up and now have to solve 6 murders together.

Tal paints a beautiful picture of everything with his words. I’ve never been to Texas but I could feel the earth beneath my feet, the sun and wind on my face while being surrounded by Ocotillo and Mesquite.
I felt that this book had a different structure than usual. The first half focused almost solely on Dakota and Shane’s reunion and love for each other.
The second half focused on the investigation. And the mystery was as gripping as ever! I got sucked right in and tried to solve their case along with them.

I was captivated from the first page and couldn’t put it down. I just HAD to know what happened between Shane and Dakota! And I had to see how they solved the mystery and who was behind these gruesome murders.

Shane and Dakota are amazing and lovable characters. Both are strong and complex but hurt and lonely. And they are unbelievably cute together!
I was fully invested in those two after the “reunion”.
We get some flashbacks thrown in here and there of their time together and those make a nail biting buildup to finally finding out what happened between them all those years ago.

My heart literally hurt while reading about their past. Poor Dakota. He now is one of my favorite book boyfriends. He is just swoon worthy.
“Let me love you, Shane, all the ways I can. Big, small, and everything in between.”
“Every beat of my heart is yours.”

From the beginning to the end this is an emotional whirlwind.
I got teary eyed. Angry.
I hurt. I swooned.
I was heartbroken.
And so so happy at the end of this story.
(And turned on. Seriously, this book has some of the hottest scenes Tal Bauer has ever written)

Absolutely recommend this for everyone who loves suspense, mystery, second chance and law enforcement!

The narration: as always John Solo did an excellent job. Although at times it’s really fast, he sometimes has a way of narrating that’s almost melodic.
Personally, Dakota’s “voice” wasn’t really my thing, but that’s just my personal issue and only a teeny tiny one if that.



amazing second chance love story woven into a superb mystery.

Long story short - since there is an already an excellent review out there:
A new series off to a great start - looking forward to the next books.
A gruesome crime, former boyfriends slow-walking back towards each other, and exciting show-down AND a Happy End..
But man - these 11 hours were a rollercoaster - and I loved every minute of it.
As a non-english speaker the narration was sometimes too fast and hard to follow - thank goodness for the rewind option - but yeah - it was all good.
If you are in it for the crime fiction - you will love it. You love m/m romance? You will love it. 2 thumbs up, Mr. Bauer!

A 21 centruy gay western - that packs a punch.
