ONE LONESOME COWBOY

by Linda Lael Miller

When a family crisis brings web designer and part-time house flipper Susannah Holiday to Arizona to care for her young niece, she's soon juggling work, childcare---and her growing feelings for local paramedic and horse whisperer Ian McKenzie. They have more in common than meets the eye---including being cautious when it comes to love. But when a disturbing revelation from Susannah's past surfaces, Ian is there to comfort her, and they both find their longing hearts opening to a better future---together . . .

COWBOY, TAKE ME AWAY

by Maisey Yates

After Birdie Lennox, daughter of a notorious cattle rustler, gets caught stealing a horse off Gunnar Parsons' land, she ends up bunking in his barn to work off her debt---plus her daddy's. But Birdie hardly has patience for Gunnar's moralizing. The man inherited his ranch and has always hated her family. Still, it beats prison. Maybe. What neither anticipates is discovering they have more in common than they dreamed possible. Even more unexpected is the spark between them---and the love it might ignite . . .

Maisey Yates' Bio

I always knew that I wanted to be a writer, even when I had no idea what I wanted to write! Even when the idea of being a writer boiled down to a kind of half-imagined childhood fantasy of growing up to be a woman who wore big necklaces and gauzy dresses. (which I don't do...but at the time, it seemed like the thing to aspire to!) Even when I wasn't writing seriously, I was harassing my friends and relatives with nonsensical email stories starring them and various characters from Lord of the Rings. I was distracted from writing for a while between college and meeting the man of my dreams, my own personal tall dark handsome hero, and getting married and starting our family. Then, when I was pregnant with our second child I picked up my first romance novel.But it was when I found my first Harlequin Presents at a thrift store that I really fell in love with the genre. And that was when I knew what I wanted to write. Nearly two years after writing and submitting my first ever full manuscript I got The Call from Harlequin Mills and Boon. I am truly happy to say that I am now a Harlequin Presents author! I live in the wilds of Southern Oregon with my gorgeous, diaper-changing husband, our two little boys, our baby girl, and our anti-social cat.
