A website dedicated to western romance. From new book releases to our favorite subject ... cowboys ... to little known facts about the Old West, you’ll find it all here.

Come along for the ride, as I blog the first Tuesday of each month. But check my calendar because every now and again I meander around and just for the heck of it get all fired up about something extra to chat about. You never know what the Fillies at Wildflower Junction will be chawin’ on, but one thing you can bank on, it’ll be interesting.
