BLURB:
Moving from a Texas ranch to an Australian Outback station was a life changing decision for Travis Craig. Though it wasn’t really a decision at all. Something in his bones told him to go, though he had no clue as to why.
Until he met Sutton Station’s owner, Charlie.
Loving Charlie shouldn’t have been easy. The man was stubborn, and riddled with crippling self-doubt. No, it shouldn’t have been easy at all. Yet somehow, falling in love with Charlie was the easiest thing in the world.
Loving him was easy. Living with him, teaching him how to love in return and, more importantly, how to love himself, was not.
But Travis knew all along it’d be worth it. He knew the man with the red dirt heart was destined to be his. Just like he knew the red dirt that surrounded him was where he was supposed to be.
In the final instalment of the Red Dirt Series, we see Charlie through Travis’ eyes. We see how much he’s grown and how much he loves. We go back to Texas with them, and we see Charlie get everything he truly thought he never deserved.
Red Dirt Heart 4 is Travis’ story.
And this is the story of not just one red dirt heart, but two.
Tracy's Review:
5 Amazing Stars!!
*This book was provided to me by the author in exchange for an honest review*
Warning: If you haven't read books 1-3.. This review will contain spoilers
Books 1 - 3 are told in Charlie's POV, and finally we get to hear part of the story in Travis's POV.
It's been about 2 years since Travis, a post grad student from Texas walked through Charlie's front door. He was only supposed to stay for 4 weeks. Instead they fell in love, and he refused to go back home. Then Charlie asked him to "stay".
Life hasn't been a walk in the park. They've had their trials and tribulations to get passed. Travis being alone, injured and lost in the Outback. Charlie being insecure, feeling he doesn't deserve Travis and trying to push him away. Ma being ill. Charlie being outed to his employees and his neighboring farmers/station owners. Travis going back home for his ill grandfather and a misplaced email, making Charlie give up hope that Travis would come back home to him.
This final leg of the story is not without a couple of more trials and tribulations, but Charlie and Travis get through all of them, the way they always have, the best possible way, together. But mostly this leg of their journey was funny, sweet and romantic. Charlie and Travis finally get their awesome HEA. And even 25 years into the future they are still as in love, if not more in love than they were when they first said those three special words to each other.
I loved finally getting to see Charlie here on my home turf, well, Texas my neighbors to the West. I enjoyed getting to finally meet Travis's parents, even if I did want to smack Travis's father for a while. But even more I loved seeing Charlie finally believe that he is good enough for, and deserves Travis's love.
One of the things I love most in a book is a HEA.. I like it nice and neat, wrapped up in a bow, and double knotted so it's sure not to unravel, and that's what Ms. Walker gave me.
Charlie and Trav's love story is epic, beautiful, heartwarming, sweet, funny, at times heartbreaking and all consuming. I am so, so grateful to Ms. Walker for sharing Travis and Charlie with us. I've loved them and I will miss them.
About The Author:
I am many things; a mother, a wife, a sister, a writer.
I have pretty, pretty boys who live in my head, who don’t let me sleep at night unless I give them life with words.
I like it when they do dirty, dirty things…but I like it even more when they fall in love.
I used to think having people in my head talking to me was weird, until one day I happened across other writers who told me it was normal.
I’ve been writing ever since…
