A Wylder Anniversary!
It's hard to believe but the first books in The Wild Rose Press' Wylder West Series released a year ago today! It's trite but true...time does fly when you're having fun!
Being part of this series is a wonderful adventure. From the very first moment, it's been great to be surrounded by so much talent and so many fantastic ideas.
Since last December, we've made so many great memories with readers and authors at the monthly Wylder West party, during interviews, and celebrating all the Wylder West Series books that have released. There are so many incredible writers who contribute to this series, each with a Wylder story to tell that adds to the western romance line.
I've read each story as it hits shelves and have honestly enjoyed every single one.
Let's take a look back at the releases that started the series...
Nicole McCaffrey's The Wylder County Social Club opened the Wylder West Series with a heartwarming look inside the town's brothel! It set the scene for this frontier location and introduced some unique characters who have graciously made appearances in other Wylder stories.
The blurb:
Eliza Jane O'Hanlan is called west to care for her ailing mother. Raised by a spinster aunt, she only knows that her mother is a successful businesswoman. When she arrives in Wylder she is shocked to learn her mother is the town madam. But the secrets don't end there…
Doctor Sam "Coyote" Sullivan saw enough suffering and dying in the war to last a lifetime. He is more than happy to help the town madam keep her girls free of disease—and worse. The moment she arrives in town, the madam's daughter makes it clear she doesn't approve of her mother's unconventional methods—or him.
Before long, Eliza doesn't just have the town of Wylder in a stir. She has Coyote pretty stirred up, too.
The blurb:
Caleb Holt is the man to see for a good horse. Abuse an animal and he'll teach the lesson that goes with it. When he lands on top of a woman in the midst of a brawl and snags a passionate kiss, he sparks a fire he never expected. But it doesn't take the cowboy long to learn a lesson of his own… sometimes love comes with a price.
Seamstress Laurel Adams is embarrassed by Caleb's stolen kiss. Though she is determined to raise her son alone, she wonders at the ease of falling for the handsome horseman. But when the husband who abandoned her returns, there is only one choice to make—the one that breaks her heart into tiny pieces.
Buck Standish is on the run from his past. He'd like to put aside the life of a gun-for-hire, especially once he meets Cissy. But experience tells him the past has a way of catching up, pistols in hand. He's lost his heart to Cissy—should he protect her by hitting the trail again? Or stay in Wylder and fight for their future?
Former Union soldier Thomas Harvey's dreams of homesteading are crushed, along with his heart, at the passing of his wife. He moves to town and struggles to survive—not for himself, but for his spirited young daughter.
After Thomas rescues Violet during a snowstorm, neither has any thought of romance. But Christmas magic is in the air. It's a time of forgiveness and new beginnings—even for lost souls.
