The iconic American cowboy has made a huge comeback in
books, on the big screen, and on television. Hunks like Anson Mount from Hell on Wheels; Robert Taylor, Bailey
Chase and Lou Diamond Phillips from Longmire;
and Tim Oliphant from Justified offer
their unique spin on the western hero in each outstanding episode.
I love to watch these alpha males solve problems and restore
order in the name of justice after mayhem strikes. They are fallible and often
difficult and aloof, but they never falter in the belief system that defines
them. Men fear them, women want them, and everyone admires them. A cowboy can
be hard to love, but once he gives his heart away, he’s
forever true.
In the spirit of the iconic American cowboy, I created
Treymont Woods, my first western hero. KISSING HER COWBOY is a Lunchbox Romance
from Boroughs Publishing and my new release. I hope you enjoy this .99 short
story.
KISSING HER COWBOY by
Adele Downs
A Lunchbox Romance Short Story
Only .99 from Boroughs Publishing!
A cowboy with a fractured back and a cop with a broken
spirit heal on a Texas ranch with the help of a stallion named Big Blue.
BLURB:
Treymont Woods is forced to take light duty work around Breezy Meadows Ranch after a rodeo
accident. While Trey’s body heals, he offers riding lessons to Houston locals
on the greatest horse that ever lived, Big Blue. When police officer Daisy
Phillips arrives for her first session, sparks fly. But her invisible wounds
run deep, making it hard for her to form connections. KISSING HER COWBOY is the
story of two broken people who heal on the road to their happily ever after.
