THE LONG HOT TEXAS SUMMER

Dear Reader,



We all have goals and dreams. Some may even seem impossible. Until the day when we realize we have no choice but to pursue them.



This is the case for Justin McCabe. He was the kid who did everything right. The kid with the great home and happy family, who had every opportunity.….



Amanda Johnson had everything working against her; an unhappy home, little familial support, doors closed to her at every turn.



Growing up, both Amanda and Justin thought they knew what the future held. Then things changed. Justin saw a different, less privileged side of life. Amanda found family to love her, and show her all that was possible.



Both ended up on a ranch for at-risk boys. The girl who’d been ‘nothing but trouble’ and the ‘role model’ of Laramie, Texas. They should have had nothing in common. And yet…



I hope you enjoy reading this story as much as I enjoyed writing it!

THE TEXAS LAWMAN'S WOMAN

Dear Reader,






Josie and Wade McCabe met and fell in love in WILDCAT COWBOY. Years later, they have five strapping sons. The eldest, Grady, is a Fort Worth developer. He found his perfect mate—professional matchmaker Alexis Graham-- in MOMMY FOR HIRE. His four brothers are about to find their true loves, and the satisfying home lives they’ve longed for, in a new series, MCCABE HOMECOMING.



McCabe Homecoming






The Texas Lawman's Woman

In THE TEXAS LAWMAN’S WOMAN, Deputy Colt McCabe is an all-around good guy and natural-born rescuer. Trouble is, his gallantry cost him the love of his life, years before. Now Shelley Meyerson is back in Laramie, with big troubles of her own. Colt is there to help Shelley and her son, whether Shelley wants his assistance or not. But will that lead to a love that will last forever?






THE LONG, HOT TEXAS SUMMER introduces Amanda Bliss Johnson, a carpenter hired by philanthropist Justin McCabe, to complete work on the Laramie Boys Ranch he is founding. Problem is, the former wild child Amanda is better at handling troubled teens than he is. With his job as director suddenly in jeopardy, Justin wonders if his own squeaky clean past will cost him his long-held dream, and the happiness he wants.


THE TEXAS CHRISTMAS GIFT showcases venture capitalist Derek McCabe and high-end Dallas realtor Eve Laughlin. Eve must win a sales contest to shore up the spirits of her ailing mother and simultaneously find a home for Derek and his infant daughter. Derek wants to pursue the attraction they feel, but Eve never gets emotionally involved with clients. Will her stubborn refusal to risk her heart and see them as equals cost them both the joy they want so badly?


THE TEXAS WILDCATTER’S BABY begins when environmental engineer Rand McCabe questions the advisability of his mother, wildcatter Josie McCabe’s, newest project. Even more upsetting to Josie, however, is the news that her son Rand is the baby-daddy of her up and coming protégé, wannabe lady wildcatter and former debutante, Ginger Rollins. Ginger has no interest in marrying Rand, or anyone who gets in the way of what she is trying to do. Rand does not want his baby growing up without a father. Both want the baby. Just not commitment to each other, and certainly not marriage! Can Josie and her husband Wade and all four of Rand’s brothers help these two lovebirds come to their senses?


I hope you have as much fun reading this new series as I did writing it!


Best wishes, Cathy Gillen Thacker
