A COWBOY TO LOVE ~ Novel
A COWBOY TO LOVE is a contemporary novel set in Northeast Oregon at the end of the Second World War. The main character, Jo Walker, falls in love with a local stockman. They marry and he takes her to his ranch on the Snake River. The only way into the ranch is a long horseback ride or the once-a-week arrival of the jet boat. The solitude of such an isolated existence eventually takes its toll. Jo gives up on her marriage, moves to town and becomes entangled in a steamy romance with a married rodeo cowboy, an affair so wild and dodgy that townsfolk are incapable of wrapping their minds around such a thing. It is the intertwining of this impossible love - the threads of love will last a lifetime - that is at the heart of this wonderfully entertaining novel.
