My novella, Strong, Silent Type, will be released next week in the Wild Ride Anthology. This is Rough Riders book 6.5 and the only "short" book in the series.
To celebrate the release, and the 4 1/2 star review I received this week in Romantic Times Magazine for Rough Rider book 6, Branded As Trouble, I'll be giving away a signed copy of any of my print backlist! Winners choice!
And, if we get over 100 comments today, I'll choose TWO lucky winners!! And if we get 200 comments? Do the math...The sky is the limit people!!
Here's a peek at the cover for Wild Ride Anthology:
For an excerpt, visit my website: Excerpts and fun stuff for Lorelei James Website - Here's a blurb teaser to whet your appetite:STRONG, SILENT TYPE
...Tough. Taciturn. And a fool for letting her go…
Wyoming rancher Quinn McKay thought he’d only have to bide time until his levelheaded wife came to her senses and called a halt to this “trial separation”. He never believed the marital rough patch would drag on for a coon’s age.
Libby McKay knew when she married the gruff, laid-back cowboy that he wasn’t prone to blathering about his feelings. But three months have passed and her stubborn-as-a-mule husband is still living by himself in the horse trailer. It seems he’d rather hold onto his pride than hold onto her.
Quinn realizes Libby is determined to move on if he doesn’t loosen his tongue and he’ll lose the only woman he’s ever loved. In a last-ditch effort to keep her in his life, he offers her one weekend of uninterrupted sexual decadence.
Reigniting the passion is easy. The hard part comes after the sheets have cooled and they find out if what remains is strong enough to survive past mistakes.
Warning: Old-fashioned groveling leads to smokin’ hot sexual encounters—steamin’ up the truck windows, rockin’ the horse trailer—proving even an old married dog can learn naughty new tricks.
Wow Lorelei, this book sounds so good. I can't wait to add it to my collection.

Quinn is one of my faves of the McKay's. Cord's still my fave ...but this one is excellent. My heart broke for Quinn and Libby.

I had my friend download "Strong, Silent Type" as her first Lorelei James book. She's hooked and now I have a partner in my addiction to Ms James' books!
