Special thanks my Sourcebooks family for all the hard work and dedication they put into my books, from editing to proofreading to the absolutely awesome covers. All you folks who work behind the scenes do a fantastically (I’d say fantabulous here, but it might not get past my proofreader) great job, and I appreciate every one of you. A big hug and special thanks to my editor, Deb Werksman, and the staff in the Sourcebooks office on the east coast. A bow to my publisher, Dominique Raccah, who continues to publish my books and encourages me with her smiles. Again, thank you to my husband, Charles Brown, who for many years has supported this wild dream of mine of being an author. To my family, friends, fans, and readers…y’all are all loved and appreciated.

Keep your boots on. There are more cowboys on the horizon.

All my best,

Carolyn Brown

How to Marry a Cowboy

Cowboys & Brides series

by Carolyn Brown

New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author

She’s running from her past

Mason Harper’s daughters want a new mama in the worst way, and when a beautiful woman in a tattered wedding gown appears on their doorstep, the two little girls adopt her—no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Mason isn’t sure about taking in a complete stranger, but Lord knows he needs a nanny, and Annie Rose Boudreau stirs his heart in long-forgotten ways…

And he’s the perfect escape

Annie Rose is desperate, and when a tall, sexy cowboy offers her a place to stay, she can’t refuse. After all, it’s just for a little while. As she settles in deeper, her heart tells her both Mason and her role as makeshift mama suit her just fine. But will Mason feel the same way once her nightmare past catches up with her?

“Brown continues her streak of satisfying contemporary Western romances…” —Booklist

The Cowboy’s Mail Order Bride

by Carolyn Brown

New York Times Bestselling Author

She’s got sass…

Emily Cooper promised her dying grandfather that she’d deliver a long-lost letter to a woman he once planned to wed. Little does adventurous Emily know that this simple task will propel her to places she never could have imagined…with a cowboy who’s straight out of her dreams…

He’s got mail…

When sexy rancher Greg Adams discovers his grandmother Clarice has installed Emily on their ranch as her assistant, he decides to humor the two ladies. He figures Emily will move on soon enough. In the meantime, he intends to keep a close eye on her—he doesn’t quite buy her story of his grandmother as a mail-order bride.

A lost letter meant a lost love for Clarice, but two generations later, maybe it’s not too late for that letter to work its magic.

“While the romance is hot, there is an old-world feel to it that will bring out the romantic in every reader, leaving them swooning and wishing they had their very own cowboy.”—RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars

“Carolyn Brown’s characters become my friends and I find myself laughing with them, crying with them, and loving with them.”—Bitten by Love Reviews

How to Kiss a Cowboy

Cowboys of Decker Ranch series

by Joanne Kennedy

This cowboy is living a charmed life

Winning comes naturally to bronc rider Brady Caine. Ruggedly handsome, careless, and charismatic, the rodeo fans adore him and the buckle bunnies are his for the taking. He’s riding high when he lands an endorsement deal with Lariat Western Wear that pairs him up with champion barrel racer Suze Carlyle.

Until one wrong move changes everything

A stupid move on Brady’s part lands Suze in the hospital, her career in tatters. Now it’s a whole new game for both of them. Brady is desperate to help Suze rebuild her life, but he’s the last person she wants around now. Suze’s got plenty of grit and determination—learning to trust Brady again is a very different matter.

How to Handle a Cowboy

Cowboys of Decker Ranch series

by Joanne Kennedy

His rodeo days may be over…

Sidelined by a career-ending injury, rodeo cowboy Ridge Cooper is desperate to find an outlet for the passion he used to put into competing. So he takes on the challenge of teaching roping skills to troubled ten-year-olds in a last-chance home for foster kids, and finds it’s their feisty supervisor who takes the most energy to wrangle.

But he’ll still wrangle her heart

When social worker Sierra Dunn seeks an activity for the rebellious kids at Phoenix House, she soon learns she’s not in Denver anymore. Sierra is eager to get back to her inner-city work, and the plan doesn’t include forming an attachment in Wyoming—especially not to a ruggedly handsome and surprisingly gentle local rodeo hero.

“Realistic and romantic… Kennedy’s forte is in making relationships genuine and heartfelt as she exposes vulnerabilities with tenderness and good humor.”—Booklist Starred Review

“The sex scenes are juicy…and the plot moves seamlessly.”—RT Book Reviews, 4 Stars
