Mckettricks of Texas: Austin (2010)
“Outside the world of rodeo, it was hardly any time at all.
Add two thousand pounds of ticked-off bull—aptly named Buzzsaw—to the equation, though, and eight seconds could seem a whole lot like forever.
Standing at the bar in a little backstreet, hole-in-the-wall dive a more prudent man would likely have steered clear of, Austin McKettrick reflected on the ride he’d made a few hours before and wondered why he didn’t feel more like celebrating.
For months now, ever since the first go-round with t...hat particular bull, when he’d nearly been killed, Austin had thought about little else except riding Buzzsaw.
Now that he’d done it, and laid a demon or two to rest in the process, he was fresh out of worthy objectives.
A flicker in the mirror behind the bar drew Austin’s attention; he adjusted his hat and scanned the shadowy width of the glass with an imperceptible movement of his eyes.
Shit, he thought as he watched his brothers, Tate and Garrett, approach.
They were both cowboys, lean and tall, with broad shoulders and Clint Eastwood attitudes.MoreLess
