Today I fly home via Chicago - Vegas - Honolulu. Carolyn Brown, features Vegas in her new release, ONE HOT COWBOY WEDDING. It is filled with her trademark humor. From Carolyn's bio (at this link),
Hi! I'm twenty five years old and movie star gorgeous. The camera added thirty plus years and a few wrinkles. Can't trust those cameras or mirrors either. Along with bathroom scales they are notorious liars! Honestly, I am the mother of three fantastic grown children who've made me laugh and given me more story ideas than I could ever write. My husband, Charles, is my strongest supporter and my best friend. He's even willing to eat fast food and help with the laundry while I finish one more chapter! Life is good and I am blessed!
ONE HOT COWBOY WEDDING is the fourth book in Carolyn's SPIKES AND SPURS Series:
A marriage made in Vegas...
Hunky cowboy Ace Riley wasn't planning on settling down, but his family had other plans for him...The only way to save his hide, and his playboy lifestyle, is to discreetly marry his best friend, Jasmine King.
Can't possibly last...
Feisty city–girl Jasmine as just helping out her friend—that is, until their first kiss stirs up a whole mess of trouble, and suddenly discretion is thrown to the wind.
One hot cowboy, one riled up woman...
And they'll be married for a year, like it or not!

It's the hat, the horse, the jeans, the tipping of the hat, the smile, the life: you name it.
ReplyDeleteI think it's the tight jeans.
ReplyDeleteSafe journey home Kim! Cowboys are hot because they are so in control and usually very physically fit.
ReplyDeleteI do agree with the hat and the tipping of it. their bodies are another reason. Can't be out of shape and be a good cowboy.
ReplyDeleteI think it's their swagger that makes them so hot!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it home safe Kim and it was great to finally meet you.
Safe traveling Kim.
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn, you have some of the best cowboys. I think the whole package makes them sexy. Most important though is that down home honesty and loyalty they have.
Thanks for this chance. Love your books Carolyn. Still have a few to catch up but I'm getting there. :)

Safe travels to you Kim. I hope your flights go smoothly. As for cowboys, it's the hat, the fact they ride horses, the jeans, and the attitude!

Aloha! I am using the computer at the USO Lounge/O'Hare Airport. RT was so fabulous! Carolyn's publisher, Sourcebooks, hosted a fun party - Mahalo!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed meeting Little Miss Molly, Tammy, Dani, and many others! Oh, the stories I will tell in the coming week!
Plus I shipped 8 boxes home ...
I love, love, love cowboys. The cowboy boots & cowboy hat makes them sexy. What makes them even sexier is riding a horse or a southern accent.
ReplyDeleteThis book sounds great and would love to win and read. Thanks for the chance to win.

Good morning everyone!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the comments and for loving my cowboys as much as I do. Love the comment about "I protect my own until the dying end". That's a right fine summary!
Hi Kim I am glad to hear you had a good time, I hope you have a safe trip back home, and wow 8 boxes your on fire ...again !!

Can't wait to hear your stories, Kim!
ReplyDeleteAs to cowboys, their sense of honor, straightforwardness, politeness, living independently, and of course after all their physically hard work - their bodies lol.
For some reasons not really into cowboys. Not sure why though. But I do have to say the hard work they do does help their bodies.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with their hot bodies from all the hard work they do!!!
ReplyDeleteGotta be those cowboy hats...and the boots! Looking forward to Carolyn's latest.
ReplyDeleteMore comments! Yay! Glad y'all stopped by!
ReplyDeleteThe hats, the horses, and the required strength in their arms and legs to control said horses....
ReplyDeletePersonally, I love the cover with a smiling Paul Marron!
The hat and cowboy boots.
ReplyDeleteThose tigt jeans and smile, charm whoo,love vegas
ReplyDeleteKimh
I like reading books set in vegas since that's where I live. It's interesting to see how much of the city the author gets right and how much they make up or add too.
ReplyDeleteCowboys...hmmm, I think it's the rugged handsomeness. The tough hard working, sweat glistening off their bodies as they ride atop the big beasts *horses* and round up the cattle, wiping sweat from their brow and pouring water down their hairy chests to cool down.
Of course that could just be my imagination....LOL
I've always seen cowboys as down to earth and hardworking heroes. They seem easy to relate to and who wouldn't want a cowboy of their own? :)
ReplyDeleteCowboys are generally hard working, confident, dependable, strong, men who will do whatever they have to for their families/loved ones.
ReplyDeleteY'all are great! Love the visual of the cold water on the cowboy's chest.
ReplyDeleteThey don't fuss over their appearance and look great anyway.
ReplyDeleteI certainly agree with all of the comments about what makes a cowboy hot. It's bits and pieces of everything we admire and wish for.
ReplyDeleteI love your self description. I may have to use that one myself. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love the tight jeans, boots, and over the eyes hat that a cowboys wears. Not to mention that cocky walk they have. I love it.

It's not just the jean that fit so very well, or the tee shirts that hug those muscles nor the boots and hat but a cowboy just has that strut when they walk. Love those cowboys. Looking forward to reading another of your books Carolyn.

I think it's the clothes and the hat and the actions speak louder than words attitude.
