DON’T GO SNARING MY HEART—Jacquie Rogers
Alone in the high-mountain desert, self-sufficient Betsy Lynch is
determined to eke out a living selling goat cheese while she fulfills
her father’s dream to find a rich silver lode. Claim jumpers threaten to
take everything she holds dear, so Betsy uses a bullwhip, her wiles,
traps, goats, and an attack rooster to defend her land.
Rancher Dex Madsen needs to feed his hungry crew. He tracks a herd of
pronghorn and shoots one, then steps into Betsy's snare and is jerked
upside down. The goats and rooster attack before Betsy cuts him down,
and soon he's neck deep in her fight to protect the claim. But can he
get past that killer chicken to claim her heart?

RACE TO MARRY—Kirsten Lynn
Desperate to save her family ranch, Josie Allison, signs up for a
bride race then begs a cowboy to put his John Hancock down to catch her.
Marrying a man you don’t know is crazy, but there’s something about
this cowboy that makes Josie want to trust him with her land and maybe
even her heart. And Josie knows marrying a man you do know can be twice
as loco.
Cal Renner came to Sheridan, Wyoming for one thing: ride the horse
known as a man-killer and use the purse money to buy his own ranch. When
a woman proposes to him five minutes after his feet touch Sheridan
dirt, he’s sure a Wyoming asylum is missing a patient. But when she
turns those summer green eyes his way the promise of a family to go with
that ranch is too hard to resist.
When secrets are revealed and enemies join the race, Cal and Josie
will have to learn to trust each other because the race to the altar has
turned into the race for their hearts.

WANTED: THE SHERIFF—Tracy Garrett
Martha Bittner may be considered a spinster at twenty-seven, but she’s
not planning to stay that way. For four years, she’s wanted the sheriff
of River’s Bend, Missouri, to notice her as more than a friend and a
really good cook. With the first annual spring dance only weeks away,
Martha decides to announce her intentions—and declares the sheriff a
wanted man.
Sheriff Matthew Tate always thought he was better off a bachelor.
Growing up in Boston society, where marriage is a business transaction
and wealth his greatest asset, he’s learned to distrust all women’s
intentions. None of them even catch his eye anymore—until pretty Martha
Bittner tells him exactly what she wants… and he wonders why he ever
resisted capture.

and it soon becomes clear that Annabel’s brother is mixed up with the
criminal as well. While the marshal believes she may be in on a
double-cross, she has a more pressing secret to hide. She can talk to
deceased spirits, and she wonders whether to tell Angus about the old
Apache ever near to him.

Praise for LASSOING A GROOM
Lassoing a Groom is as good as its counterpart, Lassoing a Bride.
In this anthology, you will read stories that will make you smile, chuckle, and laugh right out loud.
Jacquie Rogers writes a trademark tale, one that we have come to identify with her. A great romp of fun and hilarity until feisty Becky Lynch finally snares her man--good hearted Dex Madsen.
Kirsten Lynn's story is very clever and well-written. Who would think of a Race for a Bride but Kirsten? When Cal Renner encounters this brave and wily woman, he can't resist helping her.
Tracy Garrett uses her wonderful talent of writing romance and manages to get a groom for spinster Martha Bittner. She's waited four years to snag Sheriff Matthew Tate, and now she's not waiting anymore. Wait until you see what she does.
Kristy McCaffrey pairs a determined woman with a more determined U.S. Marshal in this fun read. From the first page to the last, you'll wonder who is the mysterious figure who whispers in Annabel's ear--and why.
Linda Hubalek has a heroine who has just bought an abandoned homestead. But the ex-owner shows up for his own reasons to reclaim it. When push comes to shove, the citizens of the town step in to help the couple move along to their happily ever after.
Kathleen Rice Adams--who but this writer could think of this plot. I promise, you will love the worst outlaw in the west when he encounters a spinster who is desperate to save her bank. Man, does she have ideas!
