A COWBOY FOR MERRY: Release day blog post featuring Jamie K. Schmidt!

In my new release, A Cowboy for Merry, our heroine is determined to be the first champion bronc rider in the Women’s Professional Rodeo Circuit of America.  It’s the first time that the WPRCA has offered this event, but in real life, some rodeos are now letting women compete in the rough stock events.

Bronc riding is a dangerous sport, whether you’re a man or a woman, and riders have to be prepared for the possibility of getting hurt. But the rewards can be great, both in terms of prize money and the sense of accomplishment that comes from riding a bronc. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to be a successful bronc rider, and it’s not something that everyone can do. Some of the challenges that women bronc riders face include:

  • Greater chance for a career ending injury than with the other rodeo events.
  • Facing discrimination: Unfortunately, women often have to deal with negativity, not only from their male counterparts, but also the fans and the rodeo industry as a whole.
  • The physical demands: Riders need to have the strength and stamina to handle a 1,200 to 1,500 lb. horse, so it’s important to be in excellent physical shape. The training process often includes weightlifting, cardio, and specialized exercises that help riders develop the endurance needed to ride a bronc.
  • The head game: Riders also have to mentally prepare for their competitions. This means visualizing themselves riding a bronc and staying calm under pressure. The competition can be very intense and nerve-wracking. This can make it difficult for riders to stay focused and ride the best they can.

Female bronc riders are changing the rodeo industry in a number of ways. They are proving that women can be just as successful as men in the sport of bronc riding. This is important because it challenges the stereotype that only men can be successful in rodeo. It could also be said that in order to prove themselves, the women riders are often more willing to take risks than their male counterparts. This means that they are more likely to push the boundaries and try new things, which can lead to innovations in the sport.  In any event, women bronc riders help create a more diverse and inclusive rodeo industry. This is important because it makes rodeo more accessible to people of all backgrounds and opens up new opportunities for everyone involved.

Being a woman bronc rider in the rodeo is definitely not for the faint of heart. But for those who are up for the challenge, it can be an incredibly rewarding experience. Ask any bronc rider and they’ll tell you that here’s nothing quite like the feeling of riding a bronc and staying on for the full eight seconds. It’s an adrenaline rush like no other.

You can read about Merry Grayson and LeAnn Keller as they battle it out to become the number one woman bronc rider – and in Merry’s case, also fall in love.  A Cowboy for Merry releases everywhere on Tuesday, November 15th.

A Bayou Christmas by Susan Sands (Southern Born)

Release Date: November 1, 2022

Louisiana, Book 3

It’s her first Christmas with her birth family…

Thanks to a bone marrow donation from her newly discovered sister, interior designer Allison Miers has just beat cancer and has been welcomed into her new family, the Bertrands of Cypress Bayou. She’s been curious about her birth family for years, and it seems they’re all trying to make amends for her mother abandoning her—even offering a trust fund if she’ll stay a year and give the town a chance.

As Allison arrives in town amidst preparations for the Cypress Bayou Christmas Festival, she’s quickly overwhelmed by the drama and competition between both sides of her birth families. Local mechanic Nick Landry is the most normal person she’s met so far, and it doesn’t hurt that he’s also handsome and friendly. Just as Allison starts to wonder if she’s finally found a new home, family, and a man to love, she discovers that Nick—just like both sides of her family—has been keeping his own secrets.

Family is all Allison has ever wanted, but should she listen to her head or her heart this unforgettable Christmas?


A Santa Stabbing by Geri Krotow (Tule Mystery)

Release Date: November 2, 2022

Shop ‘Round the World, Book 1

She didn’t realize she’d traded “Naval Aviator” for “amateur sleuth”…

Retired Navy pilot Angel Warren’s new life awaits in Stonebridge, Pennsylvania, where she’s opening Shop ‘Round the World, her travel-inspired gift and novelty shop. A newly empty nester and longtime widow, she’s looking forward to leaving her flying career and its many life-or-death decisions behind and reconnecting with family and friends. Right now, Angel’s biggest challenge is getting the shop ready for its grand opening just weeks before Christmas.

Until she finds a dead body in the shop murdered with one of her specialty Santa figurines. Even worse, Angel’s fingerprints are on the “weapon” and she’s a prime suspect. It doesn’t help that the deceased is an old friend who’s collected a long list of enemies as a cut-throat real estate agent. And then there’s the Stonebridge Chief of Police—and Angel’s high school BFF—who brings her in for questioning.

If Angel wants to clear her name before the Christmas rush, she’s going to need to do some sleuthing on her own—and with the help of her stressed out parrot, Ralph.

Haven Creek, Book 1

Sometimes, it takes more than mistletoe to find true love.

Reyna Star, owner of North Star Private Car, is drawn to Hawk Swan’s rugged good looks when she picks him up for his holiday party weekend, but she knows his type, and she’s not interested. However, she does pocket more than a generous tip from her passenger—when one of Hawk’s companions mentions the Berkshires as the perfect place to go skiing, Reyna decides to spend Christmas there with her teenage daughter, Lily, and rebuild their bond.

Custom woodcrafter, Julian “Hawk” Swan is tired of the single life and wants to settle down. When Reyna arrives in Haven Creek, he seizes the chance to fix her first impression of him. Attraction burns bright between them, but there are those not warming up to their relationship—Lily is acting out, Hawk’s cousin worries about potential hardships in their romance, and even Reyna’s ex is too close for comfort.

This Christmas, can Reyna and Hawk rise above these holiday hurdles and build a lasting future?

Then the gorgeous Bella Bradley, Jane’s childhood BFF who had no qualms about skipping town when times got tough, returns with handfuls of cash and her smoking-hot business partner Nate Wright on her arm.

Jane can’t believe she’s being upstaged again, especially when Bella uses the Single Bells activities to rekindle a romance with her high school boyfriend—the man Jane had envisioned her future with. So if a little competition could convince Bella to leave town—again—Jane is ready to take the mittens off. And she’s not above sabotage, cheating, or flirting with Nate to win.

These childhood friends turned rivals may have more in common than they thought. Let the reindeer games begin…

Both Piper and Dawson have ideas for how they plan to benefit the community with their potential winnings, but the legacy has strings.

After a childhood of instability, Noa Jacob purchased Second Chance, a thrift store-turned-boutique in Orchard Hill, and is determined to put down the roots she never had. Running her own business is more challenging than she’d imagined, and she’s in danger of losing it all—until a handsome stranger bursting with ideas walks in looking for work.

Noa only has ten days to turn Second Chance around, but Zach is confident that’s plenty. Together they create a successful Hanukkah Miracle Market that draws in families looking for something other than the Christmas cheer. But as the balance sheet ticks up, Noa wonders if instead of losing her business, she risks losing her heart.

Tule Author Q&A: Jamie K. Schmidt wants to ride horses!

Jamie K. Schmidt stopped by the Tule blog to discuss the fifth book in her Three Sisters Ranch series, A Cowboy for June!

 

Where did you get the inspiration for A Cowboy for June?

I knew that Esteban needed someone when I was writing the original trilogy for The Three Sisters Ranch.  I read Cowgirl magazine and watch the women rodeo events, so I knew I had to base my heroines for the next trilogy off of professional women barrel racers.

 

If you could spend the day with June or Esteban, who would you choose and what would you do?

Tough question!  Esteban makes a mean ropa vieja.  Here’s a recipe that inspired me for that. But June is one of the Wild Grayson sisters, so she’s a party in a “Bad Reputation” studded Stetson.  I think I’d spend the day with June and her bestie, Emily, riding horses on the Three Sister Ranch.

 

What has been your favorite part about writing stories set in Last Stand?

That the community is there every time the characters step off the ranch.  I like that it intertwines my story with the other authors’ who write in the Last Stand series.

 

What song would be in the soundtrack to Esteban and June’s love story? Why? 

“Ain’t Going Down Til the Sun Comes Up” by Garth Brooks 

because it’s fast paced, wild, breaks all the rules and doesn’t care.  But a more romantic song would be “I Run to You” by Lady A. for the lines “This world keeps spinnin’ faster
Into a new disaster, so I run to you”

 

What are you currently reading?

I’m a fickle reader, mostly because I always misplace my book I’m reading and I have different moods where I want to read different books.  Right now I’m reading Undercover Bromance by Lyssa Kay Adams, Shades of Wicked by Jeaniene Frost, An Amish Match by Jo Ann Brown, and I’m listening to Susan Ericksen read Golden in Death by J.D. Robb.

A COWBOY FOR APRIL: Release day blog post featuring Jamie K. Schmidt

Ten Cowboy Movies I Love

I grew up on cowboy movies.  My father loved his boyhood favorite, the 1949 Ghost Riders in the Sky with Gene Autry. My grandfather loved anything with John Wayne in it, and I was a fan of the Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns growing up.

As I got older, my cowboys needed to be a little more romantic and I needed some eye candy to entertain me.  There is just something about a straight shooting, hard jawed man in tight fitting Levis that makes a western all that more exciting.  Also the town names and locations in all these movies are also solid gold. 

Here are my top ten suggestions of cowboy movies you should see:

  1. The Outlaw Josey Wales with Clint Eastwood and Sam Bottoms.  They’re more civil war veterans than cowboys.  But they ride horses and shoot guns.  I love the gunslinger drama and Josey Wales’ legacy as a guerrilla fighter that has people trembling in fear.
  2. Urban Cowboy with John Travolta and Debra Winger.  The bull ride that Debra Winger does is reminiscent to the one June Grayson does in my book A Cowboy for June, that comes out on September 9th this year.  This movie has an awesome soundtrack. Johnny Lee’s “Lookin’ For Love” and The Charlie Daniels’ Band’s “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” are my favorite songs.
  3. Legends of the Fall with Brad Pitt pre-Angelina Jolie.  He’s got long hair and rides a horse in Montana with his brother Aidan Quinn and father Anthony Hopkins.  Even beyond the eye candy, this is such a pretty movie. It’s not a happy one though.
  4. The Longest Ride features Scott Eastwood as a bull rider, who is just as attractive as his daddy was when he was younger. This movie is based off a Nicholas Sparks book.  So you know you’re going to cry while you’re watching this.
  5. Quigley Down Under with Tom Selleck and his 80’s stache, Alan Rickman as the villain, and the wonderful Laura San Giacomo as Crazy Cora.  The dingos in this movie were terrifying, but I loved how Quigley treated Cora.
  6. Brokeback Mountain with Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger.  It’s based on Anne Proulx’s short story and I had read it first before seeing the movie.  The end of the short story was gut wrenching and I was hoping Hollywood would give these two cowboys a HEA.  
  7. Hidalgo with Viggo Mortensen.  I loved that Viggo bought the mustang and took him home after the movie.  This story is about an American cowboy competing in the Ocean of Fire, a 3,000 mile race through the desert against Arabian horses.  Omar Sharif was the main Sheikh
  8. Maverick with James Gardner and Mel Gibson before he was a dumpster fire.  This take on cowboys shows the handsome men as a lawman and a professional gambler. But there are enough high jinks and action to keep you entertained while you look for all the country singers who made cameos in the film. Crystal River is the town’s name.  Part of Cole Lockwood, my hero in A Cowboy for April, which releases this week, was based on Mel Gibson’s love for the poker game.
  9. Cowboys and Aliens. It stars Daniel Craig as a gunslinger with amnesia, and Harrison Ford, looking wonderfully craggy and dusty, as Colonel Dolarhyde.  The plot is a little far fetched, unless you can get past the concept of aliens trying to take over the Wild West. The town’s name is Absolution.
  10. The Quick and the Dead. It stars Sharon Stone as “The Lady” a female gunslinger and Russell Crowe as an outlaw turned preacher.  This movie has the best gunfight competition.  The town’s name is Redemption.

What are some of your favorite cowboy movies?
