I don't read very many cowboy books but this one really caught my attention from the beginning! The chemistry between the hero/heroine was tangible. The added drama a nice touch.

They even let me name the series, so once I finish the RS I'm working on, I'll work on the next book. It's started, but I don't do well trying to work on more than one thing at a time.Marie-Nicole Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06704351418597214594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041496414734394229.post-34829631419737990622010-01-11T10:54:58.273-06:002010-01-11T10:54:58.273-06:00Great excerpt Marie-N.

Yes, that's the conventional wisdom hi...Karen,<br /><br />Yes, that's the conventional wisdom historical western sales are soft. There are too many vampires and shifters taking up those slots. <br /><br />But there is a solid audience for the historical western, but we seem to be the same generation and our buying power isn't as respected as it should be!<br /><br />This is my first historical wester, BTW, so I don't have a lot of experience in whether or not future books will sell. I think the erotic element helped sales at my particular publisher.Marie-Nicole Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06704351418597214594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041496414734394229.post-20753513776394418512010-01-11T08:53:51.244-06:002010-01-11T08:53:51.244-06:00I grew up with all the westerns on TV in the late ...I grew up with all the westerns on TV in the late 50's and early 60's. Loved them all...still do! I especially love DEADWOOD too. I don't have HBO so I had to wait for DVD release. I am now the proud owner of all 3 seasons.<br /><br />When I first started reading historical romances way back in the early days of paperback novels, most of the books were set in America. But now I read historicals set mainly in the Regency and Victorian eras. I've heard/read somewhere that interest in historicals set in the American Old West is waning. As authors of books set in this time period, do you find that to be the case?Karen Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732638672537005826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041496414734394229.post-13675435975488288992010-01-11T08:32:09.269-06:002010-01-11T08:32:09.269-06:00Zina,

But too love to find a historical one too!<br /><br />I rode a horse only ONCE, LOL. I was working at a summer camp with children who were deaf and one requirement was to experience first hand the activities the children would be involved in. So I enjoyed the bow and arrow (I can't remember what its called! LOL) and the arts and crafts. I was excited about experience riding a horse and I actually did pretty good (except trying to get on it) and then I was so sore that I pretty much was walking a 'split' for a few days after! Thanks for the huge peek into the book! <br /><br />I'm looking forward to the cowboy week here!<br /><br />cathiecaffey(at)gmail(dot)comCaffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11830854922444380155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1041496414734394229.post-10267964555095257072010-01-10T18:08:18.382-06:002010-01-10T18:08:18.382-06:00Sue--That's so great.
