The books range on length from novels (60-130,000 words) to novellas (20-40,000 words). My books do have sex between consenting adults. The novellas are mostly ♥♥♥. Novels are ♥♥♥♥. There is some violence and mild profanity.

------holding hands, perhaps a gentle kiss
♥♥ ---- more kisses but no tongue-- no foreplay
♥♥♥ ---kissing, tongue, caressing, foreplay & pillow talk
♥♥♥♥ --all of above, full sexual experience including climax
♥♥♥♥♥ -all of above including coarser language and sex more frequent

Big Iron

Inspiration for writing westerns can come from anywhere, but nobody's better at providing it than Marty Robbins. This song always makes me think of my son-in-law. I can't help it but whenever I hear it I see him as that ranger heading out in the street for a showdown against a bad guy.

If you aren't into westerns, give the video a look anyway as it's full of historic photos from that period. Now besides my son-in-law, I can imagine it being the hero of my western romance, Tucson Moon, to come in late November-- U.S. Deputy Marshal Cord O'Brian (before the time of the Arizona Rangers). He's the lawman who later began the Circle O ranch which was in the contemporary western, Desert Inferno.

I have to say that I have a soft spot for men who keep the law. They get a bad rap today but whether they are border patrolmen, cops on the beat, government investigators, or military (that one is currently being written), they are the ones standing between disaster and the rest of us. They walk in when we run out. Yes, there are some bad apples among them but tell me where we'd be without them?
