Today I’m visiting with my favorite western romance writer, Sandra Cox.
Sandra is an award-winning author with a backlist comprising of more than thirty titles. She lives with her husband, their dog and cats in North Dakota where her imagination has room to soar.
I fell in love with her gruff western heroes and the courageous women they love, and can highly recommend all of her books as must reads.
Here is my review for what should become a movie, IMO, Silverhills.
Alexandria O’Malley is on the run and must be able to disappear at a moment’s notice. When she hires on to the cattle drive, she doesn’t expect the powerful attraction between herself and her trail boss or the response of her treacherous body.
Sandra is a vegetarian, animal lover and avid gardener. She lives with her husband, their dog and several cats in sunny North Carolina.
Her novels consist of All Things Western and More. She is an Eppie finalist, award winner and category best-seller.
My Review
An epic love story for the ages!
On the run from a dangerous man, Alexandria O’Malley poses as a young boy and joins a cattle drive on the Chisholm Trail- and tries to stay out of the foreman’s way.
Brandon Wade doesn’t need a snot-nosed kid on a dangerous cattle drive, but his conscience won’t let him send the boy on his way, either. Determined to keep an eye on the young sharpshooter, he slowly gains respect for Alex’s hard-working ethic and talent with animals.
When a lightning storm causes a stampede, Brandon and Alex are separated from his men and must ride out the storm together where Brandon learns his trailhand is a woman! Suddenly, his strange fascination with the ‘boy’ begins to make sense. Angry at being duped, Brandon can’t deny his attraction to the O’Malley and determines to make her his bride.
Alexandria is torn between running before Brandon gets hurt by the devil on her tail and giving in to the feelings she has for the foreman. Before she can make a decision, Alex is captured by Comancheros and taken to their mountain hideaway by their darkly compelling leader who plans to sell her to the highest bidder- if he can keep his hands off her.
Brandon swears revenge and trails the group, defying the odds to make a daring rescue. With Alexandria in his arms again, Brandon takes her home to Silverhills and urges her to pick a date for their wedding. But the past is creeping up on them and the two lovebirds will be tested in ways neither could have expected.
“What am I going to do with you, O’Malley?”
“I don’t see the need to do anything with me.” Her back ramrod straight, she stared at the stone fireplace on the far side of the wall.
“Don’t misunderstand me, Irish,” he continued as if she’d never spoke. “I admire your courage and your grit. What I don’t admire,” his voice hardened, “is your blatant stupidity, your mule-headed stubbornness and your stiff-backed pride.”
Silverhills- Sandra Cox
This is a sweeping romance filled with larger-than-life heroes, a villain with character (and one without), in an unforgettable Texas setting. Silverhills would be an epic movie!
I hope you’ll join me on Sandra’s blog to celebrate my new release today.
See you there!
