I’m a grumpy loner cowboy and I like it that way. Until my beautiful mail order bride arrives and suddenly, I want more than a marriage in name only. Ethan I’m not exactly Mr. Hearts and Flowers.

She’s the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen and I’m instantly in love. But are the scars from my past too much for a ray of sunshine like her? Valentine Yep, I was born on Valentine’s Day and yeah, it is a dorky name. But that doesn’t mean that I can’t believe in family and love and forever. Sure, I was a foster kid who never knew those things. But I want to. That’s why I signed up to be a mail order bride. Looking at Ethan, I know that we can make this work if he’ll just give me a chance. He seems determined to close himself off, but maybe for the first time, I can convince someone I’m worth keeping. Will this lonely cowboy finally let me inside? Or are we doomed to keep this as a marriage in name only?

The Cowboy
Author: Blake Allmendinger
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 019507243X
Category : American literature
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
What are the connections between cattle branding and Christian salvation, between livestock castration and square dancing, between rustling and the making of spurs and horsehair bridles in prison, between children's coloring books and cowboy poetry as it is practiced today? The Cowboy usesliterary, historical, folkloric, and pop cultural sources to document ways in which cowboys address religion, gender, economics, and literature. Arguing that cowboys are defined by the work they do, Allmendinger sets out in each chapter to investigate one form of labor (such as branding, castration,or rustling) that cowboys perform in their "work culture." He then looks at early oral poems that cowboys recited around campfires, on trail drives, at roundups, and at home in their bunkhouses, and at later poems, histories and autobiographies written by cowboys--most of which have never beforebeen studied by scholars. He discovers that these texts not only deal with work but with larger concerns, including art, morality, spirituality, and male sexuality. In addition to spotlighting little-known texts, art, and archival sources, The Cowboy examines the works of Twain, Steinbeck, Cather,Norris, Dana, McMurtry, and others, and features more than 60 historic photographs, many of which have not been published until now.
