Discussion Divas Discussion Divas Dreadnaught Registered: 09/14/06 Posts: 221 Loc: Lounging in the Spa	There's something about a man astride his trusty stead, moving as though one across the plains. Or along mountain trails. It's enough to make a woman wish she could...ride. Yes, a man with a Stetson and well worn Levi's that fit his form like a glove can conjure up a whole host of fantasies for a woman who likes a little romance in her life. We Discussion Divas agree. There is something sexy about a cowboy. When we did a search on romance novels about cowboys and ranchers, we were thrilled at the authors who have written about these wild men of the west: Linda Lael Miller, Susan Kay Law, Catherine Anderson, Sandra Brown, Sandra Hill, Diana Palmer, Julie Garwood, B.J. Daniels, Susan Mallery, Brenda Jackson, Nora Roberts, Marilyn Pappano, Rebbecca Wade, Kathleen Eagle...just to name a few! And the men they write about are definitely hero quality. Rugged, determined, kind, faithful, powerful, have great endurance, loyal. Yeah, there's sometime about a cowboy, baby. So, ladies, who are your favorite cowboys? Who makes you think of long western nights and slow rides? Come one, you know you're thinking of someone now. $;\)$ _________________________ DiscussionDivas@aol.com Blog

Shivani Shivani Dreadnaught Registered: 09/15/06 Posts: 3714 Loc: Citizen of the World	I'd like to think Cole Harrison is somewhat a cowboy. Either way he's definitely yummy. I picked another kind of cowboy, at least I think he qualifies, he is from Texas. Dallie Beaudine from Fancy Pants. I love the scenes in the small town and him dancing with Francesca at the western bar. It's been forever since I read that book, I barely remember it. The only other cowboys I remember reading were Harlequin romances and I sure can't remember any of the names of the books. ~Shivani _________________________ [Veronica is trying to change a flat tire] Troy: Flat?

My very favorite western romance, however, is Penelope Williamson's Heart of the West. Zach Rafferty=one hot cowboy. _________________________ ~JMBB Dreadnaught since February 2002

Queenie Maitland Queenie Maitland Dreadnaught Registered: 09/14/06 Posts: 1661 Loc: The Apparition	Wow - I'm stumped! I would've sworn there's a cowboy hero in my reading past, but so far the only one who's come to mind is Sandra Hill's Cajun Cowboy. I remember he was drop dead gorgeous, and an ex-con. LOL! _________________________ - Queenie

Katie B Katie B Dreadnaught Registered: 07/07/08 Posts: 181 Loc: Renton, Wa	My favorite cowboy is Johnanna Lindsey's Angel....following in 2nd place is Colt Thunder, also from JL in Savage Thunder. Angel coincidentally was my first romance novel, therefore sealing a love for rugged cowboys into my heart forever $\:\)$ I don't normally love JL's writing, but do so love these two characters.

Jennie Westmoreland Jennie Westmoreland Dreadnaught Registered: 09/06/06 Posts: 3428 Loc: Claymore with my beloved Royce	I never really considered the "For the Roses" brothers to be cowboys, but I guess they were. Yeah they're hotters. I'm not a huge cowboy fan, but I do like JL's men too.

Loved that plotline. Gunslinger hired to help out and end up falling for the lady of the ranch. God, how I miss a good ol' fashioned Western! Of course, my all-time favourite cowboy is Shane! $\:D$ _________________________ Aura Richardson
