New Release! Chasing Liberty



 Hoorah!!!!

The day has finally come that Book 3 of the Cowboys of Sagebrush Rose, Chasing Liberty, IS LIVE!!!!

I loved writing this book. Loved the characters because they loved to talk to me. As an author, I enjoy being connected to my characters. Wyler and Liberty had chemistry off the book pages. These two wanted to have sex from front to back, 24/7. I had to tame them. A tad bit. This book is a bit of a steamier western than I've written lately. I went with the flow.

Here's an excerpt.

“It’s not about that, Wyler.” She got off the bed and winced as the IV line tugged. “I need a little time.” She looked around the room for something.

“Your clothes are over there.” He referred to the plastic bag next to the chair. “Did you think you should have spoken with me first? We could have discussed it. I am your husband.”

“About that.” She didn’t even look at him as she dug inside the bag.

“Yeah, about that.” He didn’t even worry about monitoring his tone because he was hurting too.

She laid out her the shirt and sweatpants she’d worn to the clinic. “I’m doing you a favor, Wyler.”

“A favor?” He chuckled, but it sounded more like a snort. “By letting me off the hook?”

She looked at him sadly. "The pregnancy was holding us together, but it's gone now."

He sighed deeply. "There's more to our relationship."

"The situation is different," she said, clutching her shirt and facing him.

"Just like that, then?"

"It's all difficult," she replied.

“You’re certainly making it seem easy.”

"You must recognize the reality of the situation. I—I…," her voice faded into a heavy quiet.

"What is it, Liberty?" He approached but maintained his distance. " Do you not love me? Do you not want this marriage? Or have you found an exit to finally end us?"

“Wyler…please…”

"Please what? Should I not hold you accountable for your choice? Not let you dismiss me like all the other men in your life? If you believe our connection was solely about the baby," he said with words that hurt to speak, "then it seems we've both viewed this relationship very differently."

She let out a deep, encompassing sigh. "Our marriage wasn’t genuine. Our union was shaped by specific conditions, but now we have to face reality."

"Clarify this reality for me?"

"Let's not have this discussion, Wyler."

"Not even to ensure we’re on the same page?"

"I'm not prepared for this conversation at the moment."

“You should have thought about that before you decided everything for me.” He didn’t want to be angry, but he felt like a rubber band that had lost its elasticity. “But don’t worry, you’ve made yourself clear.”

"I'm not able to handle this at the moment."

"We're both in this together, Liberty. The loss isn't yours alone."

"Do you believe I'm not aware of that?" Wrinkles formed around her eyes.

"Deciding on something so significant shouldn't be rushed. Let's take some time to consider it."

She sat down on the edge of the bed. “Do you think I haven’t thought this over and over and over? Before the baby I had made my decision.”

“Why?”

Her bottom lip trembled as if she held back tears. “Because everyone I love loses when they get involved with me. This isn’t your fault, Wyler. It’s all mine. I didn’t want this baby…not at first. I was so wrong because I did want the baby. I’m being punished. In time you’ll see that this is my fault, and you’ll hate me.”
