I’m Karen, a Midwestern girl transplanted in the South, raised on ’80s music and way too many readings of “Forever” by Judy Blume. I spent my twenties working my way from intern to executive in the music industry. Somewhere in there, I married my real life Jake Ryan, had two amazing kids, and started getting up before dawn to write romance. With sparks.
I know I shouldn’t be surprised that it’s almost the end of the year. I mean, I had a few clues–summer is in the rear view mirror, Thanksgiving came and went, and Christmas gifts have been exchanged!
But I’m still surprised, ever year. What is it about the last part of the year that makes it go SO fast? (I don’t know the answer to that question, but if you do, let me know.)
Anyway, our close proximity to the end of December means that RANCHER AFTER MIDNIGHT has arrived! This book set around New Year’s Eve is all about fresh beginnings, redemption, and new love. Even though it’s Book 9 of 9 in the Texas Cattleman’s Club series, Ranchers and Rivals, you can 100% read this as a standalone. I absolutely love Heath and Ruby’s story and I think you will, too.
But don’t take my word for it, here are a few early reviews readers left on BookBub:
“This is a well-written, emotionally charged story with relatable characters and the issues they face.”
“Ms. Booth’s story is a lovely reminder that love changes us all for good.”
“If fun and sexy romance make you tingle, this is for you.”
Let me know if you decide to read RANCHER AFTER MIDNIGHT. And Happy New Year! You all are the absolute best. I mean that!
