I love to read, quilt, work with digital images on my photo editing program, and work on my own family history.

A widow with two small children, Nissa Stillwell was forced out of the mining supervisor’s house after her husband died in the mine disaster in Wildcat Ridge, Utah. She quickly learns before his death, he went heavily into debt. She leaves what few possessions remain behind and contracts with the Ridge Hotel to do their laundry and live in the laundry shed and drying yard next to the hotel. She is able to make ends meet—barely. Being left with only the furnishings and personal items that make up James Stillwell’s estate, Mortimer Crane goes after Nissa to pay the balance owed. She refuses, but he insists she work off the debt in his Gentlemen Only Salon.
Rancher Dallin Walsh has been too busy building up his spread in the isolated mountains of western Colorado to look for a wife. He comes to Wildcat Ridge for a big horse auction. Between Crane and three drifters, he comes to Nissa’s defense more than once. Desperate to leave Wildcat Ridge, Nissa asks him to hire her as a housekeeper. Does Dallin want a housekeeper—or does he have something else in mind?
Hal and Buck, two wranglers who work for Dallin, soon find most women in town are as eager to find husbands to move to Wildcat Ridge so they can keep their homes as they are to sell horses. A woman in difficulty captures Hal’s attention. Another woman finds Buck, but he definitely is not interested in a wife.
Who will go to Colorado, and who will stay in Wildcat Ridge?
Top Ten List:
10 Fun Facts About Myself
1. I’m not a fun person—I tend to be serious.
2. I’ll go to an organizational meeting with a speaker or class before I’ll go to a social party.
3. I’m analytical and sometimes suffer from “analysis paralysis.”
4. I like to quilt rather than sew garments because l like doing the math to create new block designs.
5. The other fun part of quilting for me is to put together colors and fabric patterns I don’t think will look good together – but in the end, they do!
6. I like photography, but I’m not a professional. Thank goodness for digital cameras and photo-editing programs.
7. I love to create digital memes, banners and blog post headers.
8. I belong to my county genealogical society.
9. My idea of camping is staying in a fifth wheel or a trailer—with internet access.
10. I’d rather be reading.

Thanks for the wonderful guest post. I’m already captivated by this book and it sure has the makings of a great movie. Going to tell my brother about his book too. He loves western settings.
Marvellous news! I’m getting quite into them myself. Thank you!
Thank you, fuonlyknew. I had fun writing this Western historical romance complete with cowboys, horse drives, rustlers, an unscrupulous landlord of most of a defunct mining town and two romances. I hope both you and your brother enjoy this novel.
Thank you so much for hosting the book blitz for my novel, Nissa, on your blog!
