SMOOTH TALKIN' COWBOY (Romance)
1 chapters   —   updated Mar 09, 2013 07:42pm
Description: SMOOTH TALKIN' COWBOY (Twin Bridges Trilogy) Victoria Vane BLURB: <I>She lost her identity only to find herself...in a cowboy's arms.</I> Nicole Powell knows there must be more to life than her daily drudge, but after a long string of players and losers (mainly due to her fatal attraction to cowboys), her love life is going "nowhere" faster than her dead-end job. Wade Knowlton is a workaholic driven to move forward with his life after a personal tragedy sent him on an eighteen month bender, but his family loyalty has kept him tied to a rural law practice, and a ranching operation that's been skirting the brink of foreclosure for years. When Nicole receives a phone call notifying her of her estranged father's death, she hops a plane for Montana. As his only kin, Nicole seeks an attorney to help her to settle his estate, but losing her I.D. complicates everything, and the delays jeopardize both her job— and her heart. What Nicole seeks in Montana is closure on the past, but what she unexpectedly finds is a new future … and love with a smooth talkin' cowboy.

“What a woman wants above all things, Nick, is to believe herself the most important consideration in the world, the center of a man's universe.”
Victoria Vane, A Breach of Promise

“I never would have conceived that he would finally succumb to marriage. How did you ever convince him?”
“I must actually credit Lady Russell. She explained to me that a man desires above all things to think himself his own master. Thus, I had only to convince Marcus that marrying me was entirely his own idea.”

“A magnificent cad, you mean. He's positively gaping at your bosom, Lyddie!" Mariah said in a scandalized whisper. "I swear he's undressing you with his eyes!"
Lydia's lip twitched. "How lurid you sound. I really must censure your reading material."
"There can be no doubt you have his attention now," Mariah giggled.”

“From THE VIRGIN HUNTRESS coming June 29, 2012:
"I used to watch the stallions leaping the mares."
"You what!" Hew almost choked.
"Well, how else is a girl with no mother supposed to get any education? Although I doubt Mama would have told me very much. So there's really no reason to be timid, Hew. I already know all about the mating process. And to the best of my knowledge, the stallions never 'ignored it until it went away.”
Victoria Vane

“from THE DEVIL YOU KNOW-

She wanted him too. He could see it in the rapid rise of her breasts. He could smell her budding arousal and would relish bringing her to full bloom. God, how he loved this dance! She had taken the first tentative steps, yet she still fought her desire, refused to give in to it, but he would lead her now. He was a master…and a ruthless bastard.”
Victoria Vane, The Devil You Know

“What a woman wants above all things, Nick, is to believe herself the most important consideration in the world, the center of a man's universe.”
Victoria Vane, A Breach of Promise

“Part of her—a small but defiant part, the part that still remembered her girlhood fantasies—desperately wanted to trust him, but the stronger part remembered how he had thoughtlessly cast her aside. “We can’t always have what we want, Marcus. You must accustom yourself to disappointment.” As I have. The unspoken words hung between them.

Marcus’ mouth twitched. “But there you are wrong, my love. I always get what I want.”

Sophia Thank you for friending me Victoria/Emory. I see we share some similar interests in our reading pleausre and I definitely enjoy the genre of Romance you write.

Thank you for visiting Delighted Reader. I'll check with Shari (who is the chief and I an indian at the blog) and see what we have coming up for August or at latest September. I think she has July covered for the most part. I'm the 'historical' (hysterical?) reader so I would be the one to do the review on any of those submissions usually. I've seen your books before and thought that I would like to try them. I think that is very kind that you chose to contact us.
