Something amazing has happened. Hell, the impossible has happened. I almost didn't believe my own eyes. It's like a unicorn. Or a leprechaun. Shit, I think we've just sighted Big Foot.
Yep, it's true. A historical romance author is temporarily leaving England behind and publishing...
Kristie: I knew you would be happy about this news. I was updating my Upcoming Historical Romance wiki this afternoon, which is when I noticed that a cover was finally on Amazon.
And what a cover!
That cover model is performing some kind of Jedi Mind Trick on me. "Look into my eyes Wendy. Succumb to the western-y goodness. Resistance is futile...."
OK - sort of like the Jedi Mind Trick meets Star Trek.
I'm so happy to hear this, because for months there have been rumblings, "westerns are making a comeback" -- and since that's what I write, all I can say is, "it's about time". Give me a cowboy over a rake anyday!

Now if only Lorraine Heath would leave England long enough to give us a Western my world would be a much brighter place!
And HUGE KUDO's to Jo Goodman for the risk in stepping outside the box that is the English historical!!

Sadly - I don't like the cover. He looks too much like Woody Harleson for my tastes. But I will buy it - oh yes I will - despite the cover :)
Shit.
He does, doesn't he?
Anyone ever tell you you're a killjoy Kristie? LOLOLOLOL
ROTFL!!!! Ah, sorry about that chief.
So excited!
Even after Kristie mentioned the unfortunate Woody-ness of the cover model. :-D
Shut.up. That's too amazing. Hope it's good!
I can honestly say I've never read a western before, but now that Jo Goodman's doing one, I'm certainly going to try! Goodman rocks.
I heart the book. No haven't read it but fuck it. It is a western. So I heart it.
Go Jo.
WOOT!
