Cooper
Holloway would take nature over people any day—especially visiting relatives.
That’s why he’s headed for a rustic cabin in remote Winter Valley, where he’ll
care for a herd of wild mustangs. But Cooper’s plans are quickly thwarted by
the arrival of two unexpected guests: one, a stranger in desperate need of his
help, and the other, a very attractive young veterinarian.
Elliott is busy trying to keep
Maverick Ranch running smoothly with Cooper gone, which is no easy task with
family visiting. And when a long-lost love suddenly reappears in his life,
Elliott knows he’ll have more than just books to balance this season.
With a big, chaotic family Christmas
around the corner and love blooming in surprising ways, the Holloway men will
have to make big choices about the future—just in time for the holidays.
For those
of you who aren’t familiar with Jodi or her writing, here’s a bit of background
on her.
Author Jodi Thomas |
A
fifth-generation Texan, New York Times
and USA TODAY bestselling author Jodi
Thomas chooses to set the majority of her novels in her home state, where her
grandmother was born in a covered wagon. A former teacher, Jodi traces the
beginning of her storytelling career to the days when her twin sisters were
young and impressionable.
With a
degree in family studies, Jodi is a marriage and family counselor by education,
a background that enables her to write about family dynamics. Honored in 2002
as a Distinguished Alumni by Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Jodi enjoys
interacting with students on the West Texas A&M University campus, where
she served as Writer in Residence.
Commenting
on her contribution to the arts, Jodi said, “When I was teaching classes full-time, I thought I was making the world a better place. Now I think of a
teacher or nurse or mother settling back and relaxing with one of my books. I
want to take her away on an adventure that will entertain her. Maybe, in a
small way, I’m still making the world a better place.”
When not
working on a novel, Jodi enjoys traveling with her husband, renovating a
historic home they bought in Amarillo and checking up on their two grown
sons. For more information, please visit

ReplyDeleteBy the time Christmas reaches us we will be experiencing temperatures in the high 90s and beyond.
Shudder. And I am so not ready for the heat OR the season.
Writers do make the world a better place - we make people happy and teach them something about themselves.
