A Lost Trivia Bet Starts My New Clean Small Town Romance, Cowboy's Promise

Thursday nights in Cottontail Junction, Montana, mean one thing. Trivia at The Pint Room, half-price appetizers, and a table full of friends who care more about the cheesy garlic bread than the scoreboard. That's where my new clean small town romance, Cowboy’s Promise, begins, and it releases November 12.

Meet Brandy Babcock, the Heroine Who Never Backs Down

Brandy owns Second Chance, the thrift and consignment shop in town. She has a gift for seeing what something could be when everyone else has already written it off. She's sassy, she's quick with a joke, and she's never had a problem asking a man out.

Except one.

Meet Jack Carson, the Single Dad Behind the Bar

Jack owns The Pint Room. He's tall, blond, easy with a grin, and he remembers that cheesy bread is Brandy's favorite. He's also a single dad to a sweet five-year-old named Tori, and in all the years he's been back in town, nobody has seen him go on a single date.

Brandy has had a crush on him for a long time. That's exactly why she's never said a word.

One Lost Trivia Question Changes Everything

Then her friends make a little wager on the final trivia question. If Brandy gets it wrong, she has to walk up to Jack and ask him to dinner.

The category is Nobel Prize winners. You can probably guess how that goes.

What starts as a lost bet turns into something neither of them expected. Jack is funny and kind, and he irons his khakis for dinner. Brandy makes him laugh more than he has in years. Pretty soon there's a cooking challenge, a shift-swap wager, and a whole lot of reasons to keep seeing each other.

But Jack made himself a promise a long time ago that he wouldn't date. He has his reasons, and he's kept them close. Brandy wants something real, and at this stage in her life she's not interested in casual. Somewhere between the bets and the banter, they're both going to have to decide what they're willing to risk.

Welcome Back to Cottontail Junction

Cowboy's Promise is Book 3 in my Cowboys of Cottontail Junction series, so you'll see plenty of familiar faces. Rex is still remembering everyone's coffee order at The Black Bean. Pearl's apple pie is still worth buying whole. Heidi is still meddling, and Thaddeus is still being sent on missions by his wife. The whole town is busy planning a sip and see for baby Elena.

If you're new to the series, don't worry. This clean cowboy romance stands on its own. If you'd like to start at the beginning, Cowboy’s Trust and Cowboy’s Heart are waiting for you. You can also read along with the Cowboy’s Promise serial right here on my website.

A Clean Small Town Romance With Heart

This is a sweet, closed-door romance full of small-town warmth, best-friend banter, and a heroine who knows her own worth. If you love Hallmark movies, cozy towns, and a happily ever after you can count on, I think Brandy and Jack are going to steal your heart.

Cowboy's Promise releases November 12. Preorder your copy on Amazon today.
