Feisty reporter vs. gruff
cowboy—buckle up for a hard ride…
Come back to the rodeo
with Mia Hopkins and the newest release in the Cowboy Cocktail series, COWBOY
RISING!
About COWBOY RISING
Journalist Georgia Meyers is writing an article
about MacKinnon Ranch in a last-ditch effort to save her job at a failing
newspaper. At first, the hot-as-hell rancher wants nothing to do with her. But
butting heads leads to knocking boots, and soon she’s getting the real story—in
bed and off the record.
Cattleman’s son and petroleum engineer Daniel
MacKinnon turned down a lucrative oil career to take over the family farm.
Frustrated about giving up his dreams and worried about money, Daniel buries
himself in ranch work—that is, until gorgeous Georgia shows up and rocks him to
the core. A blazing one-night stand leads to something deeper. Despite their
feelings for each other, he’s tied to the land and she’s a rolling stone. When
the time comes to part ways, will the lovers choose duty over desire? Or will
they face their fears and rise to the challenge of love?
Warning:
Get ready for sassy banter, sizzling sex, orgasms galore, and a nerdy
dirty-talkin’ cowboy who can go all night long.

Excerpt:
Instead of saying anything, Georgia
slid her hands free and ran them through his hair like she’d wanted to do all
night. Short and soft. Her fingertips tingled. She did it again. “For a cowboy,
you’re awfully fatalistic.”
“You must not know a lot of
cowboys if you think that.”
His fingers
curved around the back of her neck. When he leaned down and kissed her throat,
the first hot wave of arousal rushed down her spine, and she jerked backwards,
shocked at the intensity of the sensation. Gently, he pulled her close and
kissed her again, dropping open-mouthed kisses down the side of her neck and
along her collarbone.
“Scoop,”
he whispered.
“What?”
“I want
to love you up. Will you let me?”
Had
anyone ever strung those words together and made them sound sexier than Daniel
MacKinnon just did? Georgia didn’t think so. She rubbed his back, packed tight
with solid muscle. Under the covers, their bodies grew hotter and hotter until
Georgia kicked off the bedspread. Cool air sizzled on her face and arms. Daniel
lay her on her back and put both hands on her hips, pinning her to the
mattress. When he kissed the tops of her breasts just at the neckline of her
camisole, his hot, smooth lips made her gasp.
“Georgia.”
His voice was rough in the dark. “Tell me this is okay.”
Was she
awake? Was she dreaming this? If she was, her subconscious had outdone
itself—this was the hottest man she’d ever fantasized about, even in the
pitch-black darkness.
“Yes,” she whispered. “Yes, Daniel.”

Forget chocolate and flowers. This homegrown honey is all the sweetness he
craves.
Small-town life is nothing but a waiting room for eighteen-year-old honor
student Corazón Gomez. Work and school leave little time for love, but with a
full-ride Ivy League scholarship and a one-way ticket out of the boondocks, who
needs it?
The answer appears on Valentine’s Day when her old cowboy crush ambles into
the ice cream parlor where she works, inviting her to go on a late-night ride
in his truck. For the first time she wavers between staying on the straight and
narrow, and going off-road with the handsome heartbreaker.
After four years working on ranches all over the country, Caleb MacKinnon
is back on the family farm helping out his mom and brothers while his father
fights cancer. The one bright spot: smart, funny, and wickedly sexy Cora.
From the start, they both know this blazing-hot love affair can’t last. But
when autumn comes and Cora has to leave for the East Coast, Caleb must find a
solution to keep himself—and his heart—from falling apart.
Warning: Contains hard, cherry-poppin’
sex in a pickup truck and a cowboy charmer who talks dirty in two languages.
Ball-busting business woman meets
no-holds-barred cowboy. He’s gonna need a longer rope…
Marketing
hotshot Monica Kaur has put her big-city life on hold to help bail out her
brother’s failing business. Now she’s got three months to plan and promote a
rodeo, the first her tiny hometown has ever seen.
To ensure
the rodeo’s success, Monica enlists a local hero, a rancher’s son who’s made a
name for himself on the bull-riding circuit. Problem? She can’t stop
daydreaming about the cocky bastard—and all the things she longs to do to him
out behind the chutes.
Professional
bullfighter Dean MacKinnon is home helping his family while his father fights
cancer. Haunted by bad memories, jaded by love, Dean finds escape in a
no-strings-attached go-round with brainy, sexy Monica, whose close-knit
Sikh-American family would sooner run him out of town than see her with a
notorious rodeo Romeo.
In
private, Monica and Dean play as hard as they work. But as the rodeo draws
near, that clean break they promised each other is getting more and more hung
up in the rigging.
For eight
years, Melody Santos played the game of love and lost—big time. Now she’s back
in her tiny hometown looking after her younger sister, making ends meet with an
assortment of odd jobs. When her childhood best friend hires her to help him
sell his family’s grass-fed beef, the last thing she anticipates is falling in
lust with the legendary, brown-eyed player.
To put
his family’s cattle ranch back in the black, Clark MacKinnon has his sights set
on big contracts—gourmet chefs and restaurateurs. If that means long hours
traveling from farmer’s market to farmer’s market, Clark doesn’t mind.
Particularly since his new assistant is his childhood crush, all grown up and
sexy as hell.
One night
in bed leaves them breathless and hungry for more. But when his
love-’em-and-leave-’em reputation collides with her trust issues, Clark and
Melody must face the truth about what they’ve become: not friends, not lovers,
but players in a game that’s impossible to win.
Warning:
Contains filthy banter, raunchy sex, excessive Johnny Cash references, and
hundreds of pounds of raw beef.
