When Evan Carlson hears that a member of the elusive Sanders family is visiting his bank to have the most valuable diamond in Colorado appraised, he assumes that he won’t be allowed anywhere near the jewel. But when Jacob Sanders arrives, he specifically requests that Evan be present for the secretive meeting, and Evan tries his best to keep his composure around the strikingly handsome man. Jacob comes across as a friendly, assertive guy who is unaffected by his wealth, and Evan feels an immediate attraction.

Invited to visit the Sanders Ranch, Evan discovers a family who cares deeply for each other despite their attempts to keep some of their darker secrets hidden. When one of those unwanted secrets appears out of the blue, Evan and Jacob are thrown together and forced to deal with the chaos. As the two men begin to explore their feelings, they must deal with the realization that the precious jewel has gone missing.

Trying his best to comfort Jacob, Evan agrees to help search for the missing stone or the person who might have stolen it. With fingers being pointed in all directions, Evan tries to keep himself off the list of suspects as he moves forward cautiously. Hoping to save their relationship, Evan joins in the hunt for Colorado’s most infamous jewel.

First I want to say that I have a great deal of respect for anyone who has the tenacity to write a book. I also believe that the more we do something the better we get. That said this book has a lot of problems. The repetition and unbelievable assumptions and decisions made by the characters was impossible to overlook. The author needs to find another word for unusual and stop having every character"look at their feet". For me the repetition is what buried this story mainly because if what was repeated was removed we would be left with half the book.

The Jewel of Colorado Jason Collins Books Reviews

I enjoyed what I read of this book. The characters were well-developed and memorable. What read of the book interested me, but as an writer myself, I started this book, but since I'm currently deep into my next novella, I forgot where I left off, and I will have to read the book again. I want to see what happens. But, as I said, what I read, I enjoyed, and I will the book again.
Sweet M/M romance with a simple mystery and lots of colorful characters.

I truly enjoyed this sweet read by Jason Collins (a new author to me.) This is a simple mystery, well written, with a clear plotline, and it's low on the angst and heat scales with strong, likeable main characters. A perfect book to escape into while snuggling in front of a fireplace; it will leave you with all the good feels!

*I received a free ARC in exchange for my unbiased review. ~AW
Big disappointment. There was so much repetition that I kept wanting to drop the book. I read to the end just to see if anything happened.
There was no character development. As for the two gay leads, you got no background story, nor any reason the two were attracted to each other, other than the (given) fact that they were gay and young.
This was such a fun read. Jason sets up the characters to fall in love with or hate depending on the character your reading at the time. The scenery was beautiful and I would feel like I was looking at the Rocky Mountains.
The plot with the Blue Moon Diamond has you suspecting different characters and never knowing who to trust. And of course, the love between these two men is undeniable. What a first date to have.
I recommend this book for anyone who enjoys love, beauty and a bit of drama.
I enjoyed it but like another reviewer said it gets repetitive. I think the authors favorite phrase in this book was "he looked him up and down"! I lost count after 15 times seeing this same phrase. Other than that it was worth the 99 cents I paid for it. If the author had selected different wording each time for the repeated phrases for example he studied him or he carefully considered him etc then it would be a 5 star for me. The ending was a good one for me. There were multiple suspects. It could have been the wacky sister who I felt could have had reason to steal the jewel or the gold diggin grannie or the 4 that actually did the deed.
This book called out to me as soon as I read the blurb for it. I mean, cowboys, jewels, Colorado and hot men? What’s not to like!

What I found was a great, fun, interesting whodunit that I can wholeheartedly recommend. Great reading here.

THE CHARACTERS

Evan Carlson

“Just tell me this, Evan are you looking forward to coming back tonight?”

Evan paused before answering, as he wanted to make Jacob sweat it out a little. He had never really played hard to get before, but something about being pursued was making him excited. He liked knowing that someone was genuinely interested in him, and he wanted to milk the feeling for all it was worth.

“Evan?” Jacob asked again.

Evan sighed with a smile as he finally replied, “You know I am.””

Evan Carlson has been working at Telluride’s First National Bank for years now, under the thumb of his oppressive boss, Mr. Phillips, and he has been wanting and working towards a promotion with the bank when he meets the handsome Jacob Sanders, heir to the Sanders fortune and the famous Blue Moon diamond that is kept at First National’s safe.

Jacob Sanders

“Jacob was one of the most handsome men he had seen in ages. He was tall with dark brown hair, and a classic look that seemed effortless. He was dressed conservatively in jeans and boots, and he looked as though he had just spent a carefree day at the ranch.”

Jacob Sanders, a banker in his own right, returns home to Telluride to take care of his grandfather, the patriarch of the Sanders fortune and 5,000 acre ranch at the foothills of the Rockies when he goes to Telluride’s First National Bank to have the famous Blue Moon diamond re-appraised. He decides to take the diamond home for his grandfather, hoping to lift his spirits up, when he meets the alluring Evan Carlson. Unbeknownst to Jacob, this would trigger a maddening series of events.

THE STORY

The Jewel of Colorado is a fun, creative, and entertaining contemporary cowboy whodunit.

Evan’s been working at First National for years when he meets the handsome Jacob who takes him to his grandfather’s ranch at the foothills of the Rockies. Jacob also takes the Blue Moon diamond with him to cheer his grandfather up while he is recuperating from a broken arm.

While Evan and Jacob are getting to know each other Jacob’s estranged step mother, Lucy, comes back home. Jacob’s grandfather, James, has been trying to divorce Lucy for years to no avail and now Lucy decides to come home. Not only is Lucy back home, but Jacob’s sister, Ella, has come home as well to be with Jacob and her grandfather. That same night the Blue Moon goes missing. The result is a fun whodunit that keeps you on your toes throughout.

THE WRITING

Jason Collins puts forth a good, solid story, albeit a little slow at the very beginning but then the story picks up a good steady, interesting pace. The characters seem well developed for the story, not overdone. The one thing I would have loved to see is where are Jacob’s and Ella’s parents? It seems as if that piece of information is never given. Did they perish in a horrible airplane accident whilst traveling in Nepal? Hmmm… Otherwise this is a really enjoyable book.
Nice premise for a nice story--which it is--but with two major problems.

The first is that there are too many times when an explanation is given for something and it's then given five or six more times. For example, Jacob's grandfather never got a formal divorce from that gold digging wife Lucy. It appears at least a dozen times, and so do a lot of other instances. Editor, please!

The second thing is that I thought Evan was very shallow. He's supposed to be the star of the show here (ok, the diamond is, but it's really told from his perspective). Jacob says he's a tease. I think he's just gun shy of getting involved, but there is no background as to why.

And the sex between him and Jacob--who is a much more developed and likable character--is really not convincing.

Maybe the sequel will be better.
