A healthy-living yoga instructor and a gutsy bull rider? When opposites attract, sparks fly, but will love ignite?
Cowboy Lonnie Kasin is close to making the rodeo finals in bull riding. If he’s lucky enough to make the cut, he’s bent on doing everything he can to prove he belongs there. That is, until he meets a spunky yoga instructor who thinks he’s two bricks short of a load for riding bulls. How can he convince her that a bull rider is the man for her while proving to the world he belongs on that Finals roster?
No one would mistake Livvy Dennis for the responsible one in her family. And only she thinks moving to Wyoming to open up her own yoga studio is a good idea. Of course, she never expected a daredevil bull rider from Cheyenne to pull the mat out from under her. There are risk takers and then there is just plain crazy. She’ll have to figure out which one she is before it’s too late to save her heart.
“Yoga is great for
flexibility, balance, strengthening. I’m focused on healthy living.
I’m really into taking care of the body.” And she would
definitely like to take care of his. His eyebrows rose.
“I could probably use a little instruction.” No more pretending
she was someone she wasn’t. No more trying to fit into someone
else’s world. She was done faking it in the hopes that someone
would pick her. Wyoming was a new beginning, and she would be as
honest as she could be about everything. Better to find out
now than get involved and be disappointed later. He either was
relationship material, or she’d be forced to move on. She thought about
the regret she’d heard in his voice earlier and hoped she was right
about the cause. “And I could use a boyfriend.” His smile drooped,
his body stiffened, and his jaw tightened. Heat suffused her
cheeks like someone had poured scalding water through her veins as
she waited for him to say something, anything. He rubbed a hand
across his chin. “You’d realize pretty quick I’m not boyfriend
material.” She’d asked for
it. She’d told herself it would be better to find out sooner rather
than later. But it wasn’t any
better. “Good to know,”
she lied, when she really wanted to ask him why he wasn’t boyfriend
material. A woman at every rodeo? Couldn’t keep it in his pants?
Likely cowboys weren’t a breed apart from other men. She’d just
allowed romantic notions to get in the way of reality…again. “I’ve a chance
to go to the Finals this year,” he continued, talking so fast the
words folded into each other. “That’s taking all my time and
attention.” What had she
expected, blurting out such a thing to a man she barely knew? As typical, she’d
imbued him with characteristics and feelings she had wanted him to
have, not ones he did have, because she’d imagined him saying
wonderful things to her when they finally met again. Like I’ve
been in love with you from the first time I saw you…
You
are the one for me too…
I’d
love to be your boyfriend. Well, he’d been
honest, at least. That was an improvement over the others. The music stopped,
and he boggled a step in order to halt. “If you are
interested in just tonight…” A year ago she might
have agreed. She would have never mentioned the boyfriend thing. And
she would have expended a lot of time and effort trying to fit into
his world so he would want to be her boyfriend. But that was a year
ago. This was now. And she’d learned a thing or two since then.
About herself. About men. About life. She stepped out of
his embrace, shook her head, turned on her heel, and left him
standing on the dance floor as the band played another slow tune. Been
there. Done that. Not doing it again.

Heroines
In my latest book,
TANGLED UP WITH A COWBOY, the heroine, Livvy Dennis, is a spunky,
free-spirited, healthy-living yoga instructor. All the heroine’s in
the Hearts of Wyoming series are strong, purposeful women. They have
to be to tame the rugged cowboys they fall in love with.
But they all have
flaws too, because no one is perfect. Livvy likes to lecture people
on what she thinks is best for them and, you guessed it, sometimes
she oversteps boundaries. It’s the hero who ultimately reins her
in, but not before she teaches him a lesson or two about love.
What’s
characteristics do you look for in a heroine?
