THE COWBOY TAKES A BRIDE BY LORI WILDE: A PREVIEW AND GIVEAWAY

GIVEAWAY ENDED
THE COWBOY TAKES A BRIDE
BY LORI WILDE

ABOUT THE BOOK:
Ex-champion bull rider-turned-cutting-horse cowboy Joe Daniels isn't quite sure how he ended up sleeping in a horse trough wearing nothing but his Stetson and cowboy boots. But now he's wide-awake, and a citified woman is glaring down at him. His goal? Get rid of her ASAP. The obstacle? Fighting the attraction he feels toward the blond-haired filly with the big, vulnerable eyes.

When out-of-work wedding planner Mariah Callahan learns that her estranged father has left her a rundown ranch in Jubilee, she has no choice but to accept it. Her goal? Redeem her career by planning local weddings. The obstacle? One emotionally wounded, hard-living cowboy who stirs her guilt, her heartstrings, and her long-burned cowgirl roots . . .

Finding the hero naked in a through sounds like a good beginning - and from the preview - looks like sparks will fly and there will be a good funny dialogue.

I haven't read a good romance in a long time---and one with a naked cowboy and a wedding planner sounds like it will be light and fun.

Love the cowboy boots on the cover! Looks like a great read for spring!
Thanks!

I find Lori's background (becoming a RN etc) interesting, but now I read that her dad said she needed to be able to make a living! Those dads, always somewhat practical.

Just the brief bio of the author on your site was intriguing....went to a Christian university (I enjoy a lot of faith based stuff) AND a background in forensics and assault counseling?! Whoa. How cool is that? joleehamlin [at] comcast [dot] net
