The Truth About Cowboys
The Truth About Cowboys by Lisa Renee Jones is 99c! This is the first book in a new series and seems to have a lot of catnip, but also a lot going on: small town, an athlete turned cowboy, opposites attract, and a writer heroine. Fans of Jones say they enjoyed the departure from her typical romantic suspense.
Steamy, sexy, and laugh-out-loud funny, THE TRUTH ABOUT COWBOYS is a new contemporary novel that will pull your heartstrings and steam up your e-reader…
While I was off pitching in the big leagues, my family was back in the small town of Sweetwater, Texas, running the family ranch. Then tragedy hit and I discovered there were secrets that my family kept, problems they hid. I went home, left behind the money, women, and fame. I took over the ranch and took care of my grandmother. I took over hiding the secrets. Then she came to town. A smart-mouthed, clumsy, too-smart-and-too-pretty-for-my-own-good city girl hiding out to write a book. She’s right here, on my property, in the cottage my grandmother rented her without my permission, and she sees too much. She knows too much.
Now suddenly my world is spinning, and she’s shoving a baseball back in my hand while baking cookies with my grandmother. She’s the devil and an angel all in one fiery little package. I decide I’ll wait her out. She’ll go back to the city. Only suddenly I don’t want her to leave, and everything I’ve settled for in my life isn’t enough. I want to play ball and I want her, but there’s that secret that won’t let go, but neither will she.

A Rogue in Texas
A Rogue in Texas by Lorraine Heath is $2.99! This is the first book in a series of the same name. I’ve enjoyed Heath’s historical romances previously, but have never tried her American historicals. Have you read them? What do you think?
He was the wrong man for the job in every way but one . . .
Grayson Rhodes, the illegitimate son of a duke, heads to America to prove his worth and earn his fortune. But post-Civil War Texas seems more like hell than a land of opportunity, especially when he finds himself working the cotton fields of no-nonsense Abbie Westland. Abbie, with her fiery determination, is wildly different from the fragile beauties Grayson knew at home . . . but there is a tender yearning he can see just below her tough exterior.
Abbie works her fingers to the bone day-in and day-out, and she needs the help of a few good farmhands. Though skeptical of the polished Englishman when he arrives, she soon discovers a man with a resolve to succeed that matches her own. As the long, hot days turn to heated, passionate nights, they dare to dream of a future together.

Highland Vixen
Highland Vixen by Mary Wine is $1.99 at Amazon! This is part of the Highland Weddings series and is a deal that could be ending soon, since it isn’t price-matched. Some readers mentioned they picked this one up on a whim and loved it, while others felt the action and romance were too slow to start.
Fierce Highland war chief seeks comely lass for fun, frolic, and marriage

Three Parts Dead
Three Parts Dead by Max Gladstone is $2.99! This is a recommended urban fantasy and many of my friends loved it. Reviewers on Goodreads really enjoyed the badass heroine, but some felt it had “first book syndrome” with too much stuff going on to set up the plot.
A god has died, and it’s up to Tara, first-year associate in the international necromantic firm of Kelethres, Albrecht, and Ao, to bring Him back to life before His city falls apart.
Her client is Kos, recently deceased fire god of the city of Alt Coulumb. Without Him, the metropolis’s steam generators will shut down, its trains will cease running, and its four million citizens will riot.
Tara’s job: resurrect Kos before chaos sets in. Her only help: Abelard, a chain-smoking priest of the dead god, who’s having an understandable crisis of faith.
When Tara and Abelard discover that Kos was murdered, they have to make a case in Alt Coulumb’s courts—and their quest for the truth endangers their partnership, their lives, and Alt Coulumb’s slim hope of survival.
Set in a phenomenally built world in which justice is a collective force bestowed on a few, craftsmen fly on lightning bolts, and gargoyles can rule cities, Three Parts Dead introduces readers to an ethical landscape in which the line between right and wrong blurs.

N. K. Jemisin’s short story collection HOW LONG TIL BLACK FUTURE MONTH? is $3.99. Short stories usually don’t engage or stick with me, but I thought almost all of these were excellent, and my main complaint with the ones I didn’t like as much was “too hard sci-fi,” which is an aesthetic thing for me and not about the quality of the writing.
Ilona Andrews Magic Triumphs is on sale for 1.99 on Amazon. There goes my vow not to buy any more books this week sigh…
The Truth About Cowboys cover is odd, is he giving birth to a giant zucchini?
@Gail Wood: I know! Is that his V-line/V-channel (or whatever it’s called)—which looks weirdly protruberant because he’s leaning back? As the cover-model maven around here, I wondered if that cover model is my alternate-universe boyfriend, Zack Salaun (aka, ANTON), with his tattoos air-brushed out. There is a resemblance. The book’s copyright page doesn’t identify the model only the photographer, Wander Aguiar, who has photographed Zack in the past—including with that prop cowboy hat.
@Cristie: Thank you! Going now to 1-click.

I may have to buy The Truth About Cowboys, my mother is from Sweetwater, TX and I have been there many, many, many times! Not sure how it’s portrayed in this book, but it is very small.
