“Is this your first time, honey?†Welcome to an evening at The Ruby Palace. Cowboys at the Cathouse are a series of lusty short stories featuring rugged, sexy men and the scarlet ladies who love them.
Sally Brook was once the wife of the sheriff, until he had the gall to go and die on her. It wasn’t long before she was forced to find a job, working as one of the many “soiled doves†at The Ruby Palace.
An encounter with the preacher’s son, Jacob, brings the father, Pastor Nash Bernhardt, who is incensed to find his offspring seeking the services of a “fallen frailâ€. The recently widowed preacher has struggled to raise a wayward son and manage a congregation in the wild, western town of Misbegotten, Arizona.
Nash knows who Sally is, having greatly esteemed her late husband, Sheriff Brook. After finding Jacob in her arms, he’s seeing red, but there are other considerations that work to distract him—mainly the attraction he feels for the lusty redhead, and a desire to make her his.
