Those who regularly read my blog know that I ask the same boilerplate questions for author interview. Question No. 1 - what is your favorite sight, smell, and sound of where you live. I thought I'd answer that question today ... I never thought I could be satisfied after living in Hawaii. But we live in a neighborhood surrounded by farmland in Howard County, Maryland. My favorite sight, sound, and smell all come from the nearby horse farm - rolling hills, galloping horses, and fresh hay.

This puts me in the mood for a cowboy romance ... and Jules Bennett answered the call with TO TAME A COWBOY:
A Texas Cattleman's Club tale of best friends falling in love
Royal, Texas, is the perfect place for rodeo star Ryan Grant to slow down and finally show Piper Kindred she's the woman for him. When an accident sends Piper rushing to take care of him, her sexy bedside manner suggests to Ryan that seducing his best friend will be easier than he'd expected.
But Piper knows the lure of the rodeo circuit—and the risk of a broken heart, when Ryan realizes he's not ready to hang up his saddle for good. She can't let herself fall for a cowboy. If only her heart would listen!
