Amelia C. Adams is the author of twenty-five sweet Western romance novels, the mother of four children, and the eater of chocolate cake and tacos. Many tacos. Too many tacos to count. Because cheese. And meat. Meat and cheese.
She has hit the Amazon bestseller list three times and has the screenshots to prove it. Even though she’s only been publishing Westerns for two years, she plans to do it forever and ever, or until the cows come home, whichever happens first. She credits her own pioneer heritage for this new interest, and is glad that she doesn’t have to wear twelve petticoats to be considered modest.

A transplanted Scot, Margery now lives on a lake in Canada.

Although she grew up as far away from the old west as possible, she’s always had a love affair with the men and women who settled the untamed land west of the Mississippi. Glued to TV westerns like Maverick, Rawhide and Gunsmoke, and reading stories of Annie Oakley, Roy Rogers and Rin Tin Tin, it was only natural that when she started writing, she wrote what she loved to watch and read. When she’s not writing or travelling in search of the perfect setting for her next novel, you can usually find her wielding a pair of knitting needles or a pool cue.

"Five brand-new sweet Western novellas by five of your favorite authors!

In His Thoughts by Peggy L. Henderson

But patrolling for poachers is fraught with danger, and he soon finds his future looking bleak. Images of a blue-eyed guardian angel are the only thing he has to pull him from the edge of death.

Ben and Clara wouldn't have chosen the circumstances that brought them together, but they soon discover their importance in rescuing each other.

The High Stakes Bride by Margery Scott

Chloe Taggart has one goal—to leave Rocky Ridge as soon as possible and see the world. She has no intention of ever being under a man’s thumb, and she has no desire to spend her life cooking and cleaning when she could be sailing the Pacific or touring ancient Greek ruins.

Even though Austin Hayward is content with his life on his ranch, it would be perfect if he had a wife to share it with. Unfortunately, there is only one woman he’s interested in marrying—Chloe Taggart. Chloe and Austin have known each other for years, but she’s never looked at him as anything more than a friend.

When Chloe’s father loses his diner to Austin in a poker game, Austin makes her a proposition—her father will get his diner back, and Austin will get Chloe."

The Risk and the Reward by Amelia C. Adams

Random Facts:
1.     I absolutely have to check my email first thing in the morning. It’s a compulsion—if I don’t do it, I can’t function.
2.     I tend to write all my books at the very last second. I don’t know why. I keep trying to get more organized . . . it hasn’t worked yet.
3.     Yes, I have worn my bonnet in public, and not just on Halloween. Bonnet likes outings.
4.     Ice water is the most perfect beverage ever. With lots and lots of ice.
5.     I would rather take naps than almost anything else in the world.



 Snippet:

Mr. Withers sat across from them, a stack of papers spread out for easy access. He first read all the parts of the will that pertained to Grant, and then he read the parts that pertained to Sybil. He then took an envelope, passed it across the table to Sybil, and advised her to visit the bank after leaving his office.
“You deducted the money spent on me in America, I’m sure?” Sybil asked as she tucked the envelope into her reticule.
“Actually, I’d like you to consider your time in America as a gift from me,” Grant said. He felt terrible about everything that had happened, and if he could ease his conscience in any way, he would do it.
She turned to him with eyes of fire. “I beg your pardon?”
“Please, it’s a gift. You deserve the full sum of your inheritance.”
She sat up a little straighter. “Do you mean to tell me that I’m to consider the clothing and the stay in the Palace Hotel a gift? Lord Douglas, that might be one of the most offensive things anyone has ever said to me. No respectable woman, whether high bred or low, would accept such personal things from a man. It’s insulting and demeaning.” She pulled the envelope back out and tossed it at him. “I respectfully request that you remove the appropriate amount of money from that envelope, sir.”
Grant was thoroughly taken aback. “Honestly, Sybil, I had no idea—”
“Miss James will suit, Lord Douglas.” Her voice was so cold and her eyes were so hard, he had no reasonable choice but to open the envelope and withdraw some of the money. He couldn’t remember all the sums, so he made a guess and passed the envelope back to her. “Thank you. Now I believe I’ll be on my way.”
