Finding a Helping Hand

Wild Ranch #1

by Noah Harris

"Lips pressed firmly against his, and he was surprised to find himself being kissed, and not shyly, either. Ryan was kissing him like a starving man, like he had been waiting years for this, and didn’t want to hold back anymore. "
Jay wasn’t sure what to expect when he placed an ad in the newspaper to get some help on the family ranch. He was just hoping to find someone to do the extra work that they had once his youngest brother moved away. The last thing he expected was to find love, but that’s exactly what he got with Ryan.

About the author

Noah Harris is a 28-year-old bisexual man currently single and living in a small apartment in New York.

Being a natural introvert with significant extrovert tendencies he expresses himself through the world of writing MM books, often with a darker, paranormal twist. His books are written from the heart of his deep, sensitive and mysterious, but playful and creative, wild spirit.

Noah is dedicated to giving something back to the universe, sharing generously in his successes and inspiring and motivating others through his writing and in any other way he can. He believes in living a natural, healthy lifestyle and has embraced meditation as a way of clearing the 'noise' in his head and allowing his dark creativity to shine through in his books.

He is determined to reach out to as many readers, who he considers his 'friends', as he can through his unique personal touch and through building like-minded communities online. It is this personal touch, with his readers, that sets him apart from most other authors today.

This is the first book I've read by this author, and I was quite pleased with the story. Even though this is short, I really enjoyed the characters-both main and supporting. I thought both Jay and Ryan were sweet and they fit so well together.

To be honest, I think this book could be expanded into a much longer one-I know I for one would love to have more background for the characters and maybe a bit more conflict other that the main characters realizing their feelings for each other. But even though the story is not very long, it still made for a nice, quick read with a dose of heat.

I'm looking forward to reading more by this author, and am hoping to see more expanded works in the future.

Don't blink it is a very short read, short enough to be just an outline to a full novel. It had a good storyline which had me teetering between 'okay' and 'I liked it' but regardless, I do want to read something else by Mr. Harris. Lots of shifter novels to peruse and I have 'Diary of a Wolf'
marked as a 'want to read'.

Cheers

I have read many MM books, and cowboy stories have always been a weakness of mine. So I was excited when I found out that Noah Harris had written a short story about cowboys and couldn't wait to read.

I loved it! For such a short story it had impact! I loved the characters and how Jay and Ryan were brought together and how they deal with coming out to truly be with one another. They were so cute and amazing and I didn’t want it to end!

Would be great to see if the rest of Jay’s brothers get their own story ;-)

So if I shout load enough, do you think Noah Harris would write more of these stories?? Will wait and see because I would defiantly be buying them and more of his books!

5 stars from me and would certainly be recommending to others.

Jay wasn’t sure what to expect when he placed an ad in the newspaper to get some help on the family ranch. He was just hoping to find someone to do the extra work they had once his youngest brother moved away. The last thing he expected was to find love, but that’s exactly what he got with Ryan.

A sweet and developing romance between Jay and Ryan. I liked that the conflict was an acceptance of one another and the fear of what his brothers would think. No craziness. I would like to know more about Ryan and why he moved to such a small town.

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review

LOVE is LOVE - M/M -You don't have (but you should) to read it just respect that I did. Thank You.

What a great short story of finding love for the first time.

Jay I secretly thought was lonely so when Ryan comes to work with him and his brothers its no wonder Jay starts to feel things.

I very much enjoyed that Jay took the control and even though Ryan confronted him he didn't lolly about and just told the guy look I have feelings.

The first kiss awe.... I love first kisses!

What a story of love an acceptance. LOVED it!

Mmmm sexy gay rancher is hot all on its own, but these two guys were so sweet and lovable together. Wished it didn't end so soon.

[J.J. Ellis · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was a cute, simple story. The characters were just starting to get developed when it was over. Nice quick read though.

[Luzmaria Morneault-welton · Rating 3 out of 5]

A great novella on finding love and worrying what your family will think. M/M

[Joulez · Rating 2 out of 5]

I read this book on a 3 hour train journey down to Cardiff, I will be honest I was kind of expecting it to last me the full 3 hours it took me to get to Cardiff but it sadly didn't. I think about 1 hour into the journey I had this book completed.

I will be honest, I didn't enjoy this book as much I had expected to. There was a lot - in my own opinion - that could have been expanded on and made into a really good, interesting read. It felt like it was very short and choppy, no sooner would I really get into a paragraph and then it would be ending.

I don't think I will be continuing on with this series, but that doesn't mean I won't read anything else from this Author. I will read more from this author in the future and wish them all the best.

This is more of an outline than a book. The writing is choppy and reads like a laundry list of what the characters are going to do. It really needs to be fleshed out and the author needs to spend some more time working on their sentence structure and basic writing skills.

2-2.5 Okay, but if one more person smiles sweetly or hums my head might explode.

I enjoyed this one a lot.

[Darlene · Rating 3 out of 5]

Definitely not the writing Noah Harris does today. Not my favorite of his works.

[Java [I DNF a *lot*]]

The prose is juvenile and clumsy and the characters have no personality.

[C. Ledlum · Rating 3 out of 5]

The story is cute but very low key. The characters are very soft spoken and the back ground does not paint a clear enough picture of their southern location. The story just leaves you needing more to make it feel complete.

[Jo Bird · Rating 4 out of 5]

Loved the story but it really should have been longer. So many of the potential dynamics were left unresolved. Having said that as a quick read its great. Jay was a brilliant lead but more could have been made of Ryan if Noah has the time. I would love to see the rest of he brothers stories told.

[Pax · Rating 5 out of 5]

short but got enough of a story line (including slight character building). Just enough for my liking.

A short, sweet story where the two main cowboys do most things softly, lightly, or while humming. Sometimes even humming softly.

[Bradley · Rating 3 out of 5]

A Kindle freebie. This one was pretty hot. It sorta had a Brokeback Mountain vibe.

[Monika · Rating 3 out of 5]
