There are times when a gal just has to get away, when the walls close in, and she just needs the space. Jesse had ever been like that, and fortunately her partner and lover Meg has always understood. Her need for the great open spaces was like a burning in her blood, and yet her love for Meg and the ranch always pulled her back within the span of a few days. Jesse loved the work, loved Meg, and loved her home, and it was really missing Meg driving her homeward once again. She was close now, tomorrow would see her back in her own bed, back in her place beside Meg with the restlessness scratched, and the need for the wide open outdoors met. She doesn't know why, she only knows she needs, and Meg, as she usually does, can understand. Now, she is anxious to get back home, and if it wasn't quite so far, she would go on, but six miles was taking a chance with her beloved gelding, and Jesse just wasn't about to take that chance with him. He was a good horse, the best she'd owned, and in the twilight of the last day on the trail, Jesse and Pepper bathed the trail dust off themselves, and settled down to wait for daylight and the final leg of the trip to home...

The love of her life was not there, and Meg knows that if Jesse had been there when her ex-husband Jacob Fritz showed up, he would have killed her. Meg would do anything to protect Jesse from the monster who claimed her and who had beat her yet again. He was cruel, nasty, dirty, and trespassing on Jesse's property. Oh he thought he had rights as it were, but Meg knew better, and if she didn't know better, although the hands had left for home, she had to count on them going for help. She didn't know when Jesse would be back, and she knows Jess will feel guilty, but there it was, her glaring fault for entering the contest, and winning with her pie. That is what enabled this horror to be revisited on her yet again. It is her fault, and she will continue to blame herself and worse if something happens to Jesse because of her silly and vain stupidity and carelessness. Now Meg’s only hope is the sheriff arrives before Jacob kills her or her and Jesse if she should arrive with her monster husband still around. But that is a chance she took when she met Jesse, and when she sought refuge in her love and her protection. She has been down this road before, and if she has her way, she will never go down it again. She only has to survive till help arrives...

Jesse’s Homecoming is a poignant and erotic look at two women who love, and have built a life together despite the odds. Jude Mason brings home the love and devotion, as well as the revenge as Jesse and Meg fight for their rights to be free, live unmolested, and be rewarded by their hard work. When Jesse arrives home, she is primed and anxious to see Meg, but things are just not right on the ranch. Where there should be activity, there is none, from appearances, the chores have not been done, the men not around as usual, and it is just too quiet. The problem is now in Jesse's hands, and it is up to her to find a solution. The setting for the book is in the west, the Old West where men only thought they ruled, and where women were actually respected for their hard work. The story brims with the love, and eroticism for which June has become renowned, and an element of revenge making Jesse’s Homecoming a short book you won’t be able to put down. It is available soon from Phaze.com, so look for it and Join Jude’s celebration of life with Jesse’s Homecoming.

Yours in good reading,
