“The Wanting Heart is a sexy, intriguing, modern-day western romance. A fun summer read.”
-- Kat Martin, New York Times Best Selling Author
Book Synopsis
The Wanting Heart, released, July 9, 2012 by Crimson Romance.
Katherine White, a barrel
racer from Colorado, lives in a fast-paced world where rhinestones
shine, hooves pound, and dreams come true. She plans on winning World
Champion Barrel Racer and being with her friends until she graduates
from college.
She doesn’t plan on the man
who broke her heart strolling back into her life. She doesn’t plan on
finding solace in a charming stranger’s smile or falling victim to his
knife.
Blake Spencer, the man who
broke her heart, is all cowboy—from the hat on his head to the dust on
his boots. He thought it’d be easy, coming back to town, bowing his head
a little, saying he was sorry, and all would be forgiven. But what he
didn’t know, what he didn’t plan on, was that the girl he thought he
loved had become the woman he couldn’t have. If he doesn’t succeed in
changing her mind, it won’t only cost him Kate’s love—it will cost Kate
her life.
Will Kate survive the stalking of a serial killer and find what her heart truly wants?

Come on in and stay awhile.
Romantic Suspense is my favorite genre. Settling in with a good book . .

surrender. Can't get much better than that!

An Excerpt
“It’s late, Blake. I’m tired.” Kate said.
“Not too tired to be kissing that city feller.” Blake could’ve kicked himself. He wanted to talk to her not fight.
“That’s none of your business. You have no right to be spying on me.”
“I wasn’t spying. I was watching Cathy.”
Kate stepped into the full light. “Well, you should have taken her home and been on your way!”
Seeing dark circles beneath Kate’s eyes, Blake studied her. He saw sadness and fatigue. “Jesus, Kate. Did you drive home last night? Have you even been home?”
“What do you care?”
Blake grabbed her arms. “Are you trying to kill yourself?”
“No. I’m living my life.”
“I’ll tell you what you’re doing. You’re going home and going to bed.”
“Don’t use that range boss voice on me. You have no right.”
Blake couldn’t listen to another word. Holding her body, even in anger, was too much for him. Her words were crushed against her mouth as his lips covered hers. He lifted her off her feet, molding her body to his. She’d been nineteen the last time he kissed her. Her body had grown and filled out since then. But, he wasn’t thinking of that. He wasn’t thinking of anything, but how damn good it felt to just hold her, kiss her. Begging for her surrender, he stroked his hands over her hips, up her back and fisted them in her hair.
