What would you do if you were being stalked? Those who have had it happen (and I
have), realize the terror of feeling like a hunted quarry and itβs only a matter
of time until the man hurts you. It is a paralyzing and helpless feeling because
more law enforcement wonβt believe the woman in the first place. I wanted to
address stalking of women by a man in this book because itβs important to
understand just how a woman feels when sheβs in the gun sights of her hated hunter.
WIND RIVER WRANGLER is
about a romance author being stalked in New York City where she lives. Hit with
writer's block, she wants to escape it all. Maud Whitcomb, owner of the Wind
River Ranch in Wyoming, a family friend, invites her out. Shiloh Gallagher has
no idea of how many ways her life is going to be upended. Meeting Roan Taggart,
the wrangler from the ranch assigned to "babysit" her for the months she is out
there, doesn't exactly agree with him. Roan is an ex-Special Forces operator.
He's come to the ranch two years earlier to deal with his PTSD, and he's on the
mend. But having this romance author assigned to a company house where he stays,
upends his life, too. Shiloh was not intending to be drawn to the tall, intense
cowboy. Roan wasn't prepared for his reaction to her, either. And in the midst
of it, the stalker isn't going to sit idly by after he finds out she's escaped
New York City for the wild West.
Shiloh Gallagher comes from a wealthy New York City family. Her mother was an
artist, her father a bestselling author in fiction. She is a romance author and
very famous for her books. I wanted to see Shiloh move from being a "city
slicker" to a capable, confident Westerner, working at the Wind River Ranch.
Roan Gallagher is all military, with a decade of US Army and black ops behind
him. I wanted to see if he could come out from behind that wall he lived within
and become far more human.
Still waters run deep . . .
Wind River
#1
Still waters run deep . . .
From the moment Roan Taggart picked up the pretty redhead at the Jackson Hole
airport, his training and experience told him she was spooked. Sheβs left New
York City to visit the Wind River Ranch, where Roan is a wrangler, and just as
he can pick up a horseβs mood, he can feel the tension coming off her body. And
that vulnerability is triggering all his protective instincts...
Shiloh Gallagher likes the gray-eyed cowboyβs dry humorβand the Special
Forces background that lends him a stoic, powerful presence. But sheβs been
scarred by trauma and her motherβs murder . . . and knows a strong man can be
dangerous. She came to wide-open Wyoming to flee a threat thatβs left her unable
to write her novels. Now, as she rides horses with Roan and helps him build an
isolated cabin, sheβs slowly letting down her guard. But danger has followed her
west, and they wonβt have a future together unless they defeat a killer from her
pastβ¦
