Jake and Miranda Harkner’s love helped shape a nation and, over the years, they’ve endured all of the dangers a wild and brutal West could throw at them. Now they are sitting down with us to discuss how they’ve made their happy ever after last a lifetime. Author’s Note: This interview would have taken place in 1896 at Jake’s ranch (the J&L) in Colorado. The interviewer would have taken note that Randy is a tiny, beautiful blond with gray/green eyes who doesn’t look her age at all. Randy is a stark contrast to her husband Jake – who stands six feet four inches. He’s broad and well-muscled, deeply tanned, with thick, dark hair that has tiny streaks of white in it. His dark eyes capture a person right down to their toes. MIRANDA: Oh, my, there are so many positive aspects to our relationship that has kept it going these past thirty years … and I must say that in spite of all of them it’s been a challenge. JAKE: (Lighting a cigarette) Challenge is probably the biggest u...

Happy release week to Leigh Greenwood's No One But You ! To celebrate, we have an excerpt to share. *** “Do you like Salty?” Jared asked. The question punctured her thoughts. The unexpectedness of it was like a physical blow. “Of course I do. I wouldn’t have married him if I hadn’t.” “You said you only married because you had to.” “Yes, but I wouldn’t have married a man I didn’t like or didn’t trust.” Jared had finished setting the table and putting out the bowls for the food, but he hadn’t put out the glasses. “Do you want him to stay after he fixes things so we won’t starve? He said he couldn’t get the land until you divorce him.” Sarah didn’t know what had prompted Jared to ask these questions. She had always tried to be forthcoming with the children, but maybe she’d told them too much. “That’s a long way in the future.” “Would you let him stay if he wants to?” Sarah dragged her attention back to the stove. She moved the potatoes off the heat and checked the bottom of the ...

It's release month for Anna Schmidt's western historical romance LAST CHANCE COWBOYS: THE DRIFTER ! To celebrate, Anna's here to tell us 4 things that readers don't know about her AND her newest release: 1. When I was a kid my father ran a movie theater for a short time and even later as a family our entertainment of choice was always to “go to the movies.” Although I spent much of my life living in small (and I do mean small) towns, the movies took me to new places, introduced me to new ideas and social traditions, and gave me the crazy idea that it would be perfectly okay for me to burst into song and/or dance in the middle of the street. 2. My love of the past and drama continued when I got my college degree in history and then a masters in theater. I spent one summer in a theater workshop at the Circle in the Square Theater (then located in NYC’s Village and now part of Broadway) and got to explore every facet of theater from sets to lights to costume...
