Mia Hopkins | Lucky in Love: Meet Tie-Down Roper Lucky Garcia
In my new book COWBOY
KARMA, hero Lucky Garcia is a rodeo cowboy who hooks up with his longtime
crush, a woman named Harmony Santos who happens to be on the rebound after a bad
breakup. Lucky canโt believe his good fortune, but the feelings heโs always had
for Harmony come to the surface when he realizes this could be more than just a
one night stand.
Romance authors fall in love with their characters all the time, but Lucky is
really special to me. Hereโs what makes him tick.
Heโs a damned good
cowboy. Lucky is a ranch hand and a
champion tie-down roper. He trained his roping horse Batman. โHeโd worked cattle
all his life, even back in Zacatecas. He rode horses before he could walk.โ
Heโs an excellent dancer. Harmony and Lucky begin their
hookup at the Silver Spur, a country western bar. โBefore Harmony could say
anything, the stranger took her hands and spun her. His movements were sure and
strong. He was an experienced dancer, not someone who had to be babysat around
the floor.โ
Heโs an underdog in his sport. Lucky is a talented calf
roper, but his family canโt afford the expense of competition. โThe guys Iโm
competing against, theyโre like royalty. Their fathers, their grandfathers were
world champions. Itโs in their blood. They have lots of supportโฆMe? I have to
give it up soon. Itโs a luxury. Too unpredictable.โ
He knows how to fight. Lucky never shies away from a brawl,
especially when the other guy throws the first punch. โLucky was on his feet in
a flash. He rushed Dr. Dickhead, knocking him clear of Harmony. They crashed to
the floor, where the good doctor found himself pinned down by two hundred and
twenty-five pounds of angry Mexican cowboy.โ
Heโs dynamite in bed. Harmony canโt get enough. โIn one
wild night, heโd turned her into an animal. There was no way sheโd think of sex
the same way again. There was nice sex. There was pleasant sex. There was even
satisfying sex. But sex with Lucky? Heโd turned her whole world upside down.โ
Mia Hopkins writes lush romances starring fun, sexy characters who
love to get down and dirty. Sheโs a sucker for working class heroes, brainy
heroines and wisecracking best friends.
When sheโs not lost in a story,
Mia spends her time cooking, gardening, traveling, volunteering and looking for
her keys. In a past life, she was a classroom teacher and still has a pretty
good โteacher voiceโ and โteacher stare.โ
She lives in the heart of Los
Angeles with her roguish husband and two waggish dogs.
When Harmony Santosโs boyfriend dumps her on her birthday, she doesnโt get
mad. She gets luckyโฆwith a mysterious cowboy whose bedroom eyes and rough edges
bring out her inner bad girl. But when their one-night rodeo turns into more
than a rebound, Harmony worries her heart hasnโt healed enough to take on
someone newโeven if that someone is as sweet as he is sexy.
Tie-down roper Lucky Garcia canโt believe his good fortune. A shot at
national finals and now thisโhis longtime crush, in his arms at last. The more
time he spends with Harmony, the harder he falls for her. But financial demands
and family responsibilities take him further and further away from herโas does
his secret fear she hasnโt quite gotten over her dickhead ex. Behind closed
doors, Lucky and Harmony are filthy perfection. But when reality comes knocking,
the star-crossed lovers must decide: walk away intact, or risk it all for a
chance at happiness.
Get ready for rope tricks, spanking, self-pleasure, and a smoking-hot cowboy
who puts the big D in Dominant.
