ABOUT THE BOOK
Cleo Arlington dresses like a cowboy, is fearless and fun-loving, and can ride, rope, and wrangle a horse as well as any man. In 1916, however, those talents aren’t what most young women aspire to. But Cleo isn’t most women. Twenty-nine years old and single, Cleo loves life on her father’s Idaho ranch. Still, she hopes someday to marry and have children.
Enter Sherwood Statham, an English aristocrat whose father has sentenced him to a year of work in America to “straighten him out.” Sherwood, who expected a desk job at a posh spa, isn’t happy to be stuck on an Idaho ranch. And he has no idea how to handle Cleo, who’s been challenged with transforming this uptight playboy into a down-home cowboy, because he has never encountered a woman succeeding in a “man’s world.”
Just about everything either of them says or does leaves the other, well, fit to be tied. Cleo Arlington knows everything about horses but nothing about men. And though Cleo believes God’s plan for her includes a husband, it couldn’t possibly be Sherwood Statham. Could it?
Their bumpy trot into romance is frustrating, exhilarating, and ultimately heartwarming.

Yesterday the DSL guy came and hooked up our phone line! Last night DH went to hook up the DSL with modem and such and they gave us a dummy activation number. Seriously? What else could possibly happen at this point to delay it further? Anyway, I'm still alive. Some books have been mailed by publishers to those winners. Some books from me are still planning to be mailed. Forgive me. And if you cannot wait any longer, I'm sure there is someone else who would want that free book. *wink*
Here take a look at these two great choices from CFBA. Reviews will be coming, eventually...

Those both look good. And maybe the DSL will really be working soon. Good luck with that. (You'll miss the library when you're done.)
