It’s always a thrill for an author when a story she poured her heart into is finally available to readers. And this week my latest novella for e-readers, Promise Me, Cowboy, is finally here. To celebrate here are a bunch of goodies. First, a contest from Montana Born Books involving chocolate. How sweet is that? Find out how to enter on Montana Born Books on Facebook.
The second treat is a free Copper Mountain Rodeo short story from Lilian Darcy. I promise you, you’ll love Rodeo Sweethearts!
Finally, I’m offering assorted chocolates and an autographed book to anyone who comments below with their favorite chocolate treat. (Mine is any combo that involves almonds, hazelnuts and dark chocolate. Oh, but I also love fruit dipped in melted chocolate. And blood orange caramel chocolate from Vosgers. And…)
Hope you enjoy Promise Me, Cowboy! If you want to start reading today, check it out here.

Angie: That work sometimes has to come before spending time with my son.
6. What makes you angry or upset?
Duke: When my twin brother, Beau, nags at me to ride better in rodeos.
Angie: I get angry when people mistreat animals, or dump them like trash.
7. What trait would you like to change about yourself?
Duke: I worry too much about the family. I don’t like squabbles.
Angie: Oh my…a too short nose, a too wide mouth, a tendency to eat too much.

space, but it’s hard not to be over-protective.
11. If they made a movie of your life, what genre would it be?
Drama, tragedy, comedy, adventure, romance, or a combination thereof.
Duke: You didn’t mention Western. I grew up loving every John Wayne
spaghetti-western, which is why I’m nicknamed, Duke.
Angie: If I go way back I’d have to say part drama, part adventure, with a
hope for romance. (The last she says with a shy glance at Duke)
