Book Description
Once comfortable on stage in front of thousands, Joely Crockett is now mortified at the thought of walking—or rolling—down the aisle at her sisters’ wedding. Scarred and wheelchair-bound, the former beauty queen has lost more than the ability to walk—she’s lost her fire. But when one handsome, arrogant guest accuses her of milking her injuries and ignites her ire, Joely finally starts to feel truly alive again, and soon it’s impossible for her to resist her heart’s desire. Alec Morrissey knows a little something about loss. A famous rodeo cowboy before he was injured in Iraq, he’s managed to create something of a normal life, even if it’s not the one he always imagined. Encountering stunning but damaged Joely, he sees a kindred spirit who can learn from his mistakes. As these two healing souls begin to fall in love under the Wyoming stars, they must discover if they are willing to give in to the tragedies of life or fight for a future together. An Avon Romance

Book Description
Kelly Crockett longs to be renowned for her culinary skills. But achieving her dream feels all but impossible when Fate insists on sabotaging every idea for transforming her award-winning Denver coffee-and-sandwich shop into a Michelin-class restaurant. Kelly has cultivated a life’s-a-party attitude that’s helped her stand out from her triplet sisters. But dogged cheerfulness doesn’t help when a fire near her restaurant sends the opportunity for a career-building cooking show spotlight up in flames. Devastated, she returns home to vast and beautiful Paradise Ranch. While helping in her sister’s new restaurant, she conceives a bold plan for rescuing her dreams. But Fate isn’t finished throwing obstacles in her path, not the least of which is a gorgeous but troubled man who’s all wrong for her. Damien Finney believes that after three years as a firefighter, two tours in Afghanistan, and one year in PTSD therapy, he’s ready to leave hell and start the next chapter of his life. After rigorous training, he’s earned a spot on an elite smokejumper crew–but then a failed jump lands him right back on the Devil’s doorstep. After Afghanistan, Damien found healing at Paradise Ranch in a program that paired veterans with wild mustangs. With his smoke-jumping career in jeopardy, he returns to the ranch and the horses, seeking a miracle cure to save his future. The last thing he needs is a bubbly extrovert-of-a-woman invading his refuge and throwing his plans off course. Although they fight it, the heat between Kelly and Damien’s opposite personalities builds. But there’s trouble in Paradise: Kelly’s plans cause strife with her sisters. Damien’s past haunts him. And when wildfires threaten the land they both love, each must decide if the heat will forge a new future or tear them apart. Are they brave enough to see that buried beneath the dreams they hoped for is the dream they actually need—one that’s theirs together?

Book Description
She never wants Scotland to change. He never wanted to be in Scotland at all. A family curse, though, says otherwise. Ainslie Campbell’s life should be idyllic. She has a fulfilling career as a respected and well-loved veterinarian in her hometown., the adoration of three imperfect cats and a happy dog named after a TV star, and the gorgeous landscape of the Scottish Highlands to comfort her. She also has debt growing by the day, a house about to be sold from under her, and guardianship of her rebellious – and also pregnant – teenaged sister. But there is a glimmer of hope: Catrione Kerr, her feisty godmother, invites Ainslie to move into Craigwarren, Catrione’s family home, and one of Ainslie’s favorite places. There’s one catch. She’ll have to temporarily share the house with an American businessman and Catrione’s long-lost heir, Ewan Portman. Ewan, like his father before him, has no desire to live in Scotland. Ever. He’s already had to put his dream career on hold to sort out this unexpected and unwanted inheritance. Eager to get back to the States and his well-ordered life, he’d prefer to walk away from the old pile, despite the objections of his mesmerizingly beautiful Highland housemate. Scotland, however, has its own plans, and soon ancient legends of a kelpie in Craigwarren’s loch, a brownie sprite who lives in the barn, and a family curse only he can break, immerse Ewan in an unfamiliar, but enchanting world that leaves both his dreams and his heart vulnerable to Highland magic . . . and most especially Ainslie. Except Ewan can’t stay in Scotland forever, not with his future at stake. Nor can he fix all Craigwarren’s problems, no matter how desperately he might want to. Even Highland magic has limits to its power. Doesn’t it?

In The Bride Wore Crimson, Bryan Woolley, Texas novelist and newspaperman, has assembled a new collection of "true Texas stories" to stand alongside his The Edge of the West and Other Texas Stories, published in 1990 by Texas Western Press. The 19 pieces in this new collection include such inimitable Woolleyesque portrayals of Texas and Texans as the title story on his own family scandal, "The Bride Wore Crimson", about his uncle "Toy" Woolley, charged with the murder of his new bride; the quest for "Tangle-Free Tom", the $65,000 prize fish in the Lake Texoma Crappiethon; a profile on the late Texas Senator John Tower and of such other Texas personalities as John "Austin Squatty" Jenkins and John Graves, author of Goodbye to a River; a lament for the dwindling horned toad population; an account of a case of child molestation, "A Family Nightmare", and the aftermath; and the full account of the 25th anniversary reunion of the Texas Western College Miners of El Paso and how they became the only Texas team ever, to this day, to win a NCAA national basketball championship, winning it with black players against an all white University of Kentucky team.
