Cowboy for Hire
Cowboy Joel Kaye has ambitions as big as Texas. And after decades away, rodeo glory seems finally within reach. But when two little boys "hire" him to work on their ranch, Joel can't turn them down. He tells himself it's only for one week, but widow April Landers and her family soon begin to fill a void in the rodeo rider's scarred heart. April lives for her three kids—and the ranch she's fighting fiercely to keep. This determined mama's not looking for another wandering partner. Will this ready-made family inspire Joel to put down roots…for good?
How exciting to have Joel Kaye the hero from A
Rancher for Their Mom written by Leann Harris a June 2015 release from Love
Inspired Romance .
1. Joel, tell me the
most interesting thing about you? I’m a
cowboy, who is following the rodeo circuit.
2. What do you do for
fun? Fun? When I ranched, fun wasn’t in my vocabulary. Now that I’m on the
circuit, I enjoy playing the guitar. My horse doesn’t think I’m that good.
3. What do you put
off doing because you dread it? When you’re taking care of livestock, you don’t
put off things. Cows and bulls don’t understand you’re tired. Either does my
horse. Too bad for you is the motto for the livestock.
4. What are you
afraid of most in life? Afraid of not winning that championship belt buckle in
my events in the rodeo.
5. What is the most
important thing to you? It was that
belt buckle, but not anymore. It’s two little boys, their sister and their
mother. Especially their mother, April.
6. Do you read books?
If so, what is your favorite type of book? As strange as it sounds, I love spy
books. It’ so different from my background and the world I know. It’s fun to be
in another world.
7. If you could
change one thing about yourself, what would it be? I would’ve liked to have
changed some of my circumstances in my life and not have my parents and
grandmother died in an auto accident on New Year’s Eve.
8. Do you have a pet?
If so, what is it and why that pet? I wouldn’t call my horse, Sadie, my
pet. Maybe I’m her pet.
9. If you could travel back in time, where would you go and
why? I would’ve liked to have been in Texas and met Sam Houston and Steven F.
Austin and fought with them for Texas Independence.

I saw your cover at my local Fry's store and thought, "How perfect!" Sounds like a great book
ReplyDeleteFry's, as in the electronic super store? My husband and his engineer buddies (retired) have lunch and spend a hour @ Fry's looking at the newest and greatest things for their computers.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Joel's interview and look forward to reading his story!
