Ridin' the edge of lust is fun...until someone falls in love. For years, goody-two boots AJ Foster wished her dream man Cord McKay would see her beyond the girl in pigtails. Now that she's old enough to stake her claim on him, she challenges the cowboy to teach her how to ride-and she doesn't mean horses. Saddled with running the McKay ranch, dealing with the wild behavior of his brother and cousins, and raising his young son alone, divorced rancher Cord has sworn off all women. Yet AJ's innocence and sexual curiosity is a temptation he can't resist. From the start of their bedroom games, they're both aware the pull between them goes deeper than just smokin' hot sex. Although the sexy cowgirl sets his blood ablaze, Cord is determined to withstand AJ's efforts to lasso his battered heart. But AJ isn't willing to settle for less than the whole shootin' match with her western knight. Sweet AJ has the power to heal-or heel-the gruff cowboy...unless Cord's pride keeps him from admitting their relationship is more than a simple roll in the hay. Warning: This book contains raunchy sex scenes that'll work you into a lather faster than a winded horse, graphic language, resourceful use of baling twine, and nekkid cowboy lovin'.

It takes a very close call to bring them to their senses and get Tab up for the ride of her life.

When someone says "Cowgirl Up!" it means rise to the occasion, don't give up, and do it all without whining or complaining. And the cowgirls of the early twentieth century did it all, just like the men, only wearing skirts and sometimes with a baby waiting behind the chutes. Women learned to rope and ride out of necessity, helping their fathers, brothers, and husbands with the ranch work. But for some women, it went further than that. They caught the fever of freedom, the thirst for adrenaline, and the thrill of competition, and many started their rodeo careers as early as age fourteen. From Alice and Margie Greenough of Red Lodge, whose father told them “If you can’t ride ’em, walk,” to Jane Burnett Smith of Gilt Edge who sneaked off to ride in rodeos at age eleven, women made wide inroads into the masculine world of rodeo. Montana boasts its share of women who “busted broncs” and broke ranks in the macho world of rodeo during the early to mid-1900s. Cowgirl Up! is the history of these cowgirls, their courage, and their accomplishments.
