Thank you so much for having Gabe and me on your blog! Come Tame Me is book one in the Wild Fillies series and does
contain adult reading material! *wink*
Welcome
everyone and thank you for stopping in! I hope each you enjoy my story of Cassi and
Gabe. I got to sit down recently with the handsome hero of my book, Gabriel
Jackson, to find out more about him for my readers. We love getting inside the
head of our characters and want to know what makes them tick.
Tonya: You left your family’s ranch in Montana to
live in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. What made you move?
Gabe: My
father and older brother ran the ranch there with several great guys who help
out. I wanted a change so I got into the rodeo circuit and found I enjoyed the
calf and steer roping. I tried bull riding but decided I like having my brains
and body in one piece. Jackson Hole was one of the rodeo stops and that’s where
I met Blake Mitchell and some of his ranch hands who also got involved in the
local rodeo.
Tonya: How
did you end up working at Blake’s ranch?
Gabe: One
of his guys talked me into helping with the cattle herd, training their horses
and keeping the younger guys in line. Working on the ranch is where I met
Blake’s daughter, Cassandra. We got along well and had many of the same
interests. Our chemistry wasn’t bad either! (wink)
Tonya: How
did her father take to the idea of his daughter seeing one of the cowboys?
Gabe: I
got along quite well with her father and after several years of working for
him, I became his ranch manager when his interests went beyond the ranch. Before
all that, Cassi wanted to learn calf roping and became quite good at it. We got
closer and built a relationship that worked for us…until her parents divorced
and her mother took Cassi to Tennessee.
Tonya: Hhmm…that
sounds tough, especially if the two of you had a good relationship. Did you
stay in touch?
Gabe: (long
pause, Gabe stares at me) An incident
happened that involved the four of us and another woman. I won’t go into that
here. We all make mistakes; I’d rather forget that happened. Your readers will
have to read our story.
Tonya: Okay
then…What do you do on the ranch to stay in such good shape? I’m guessing more
than office duties!
Gabe: I’m
not one to sit behind a desk. I get my job done there and then head out to help
the guys. We move bales of hay, clean out the stalls, mend fence lines on the
property, work with new horses and rope a few steer so our rodeo skills stay
top notch!
Tonya: (squirming
in my seat, finding it hard to keep my gaze from roaming over his arms and
chest) What qualities do you look for in a woman?
Gabe: She
has to have a mind of her own, be comfortable with the life choices she’s made,
know what she wants out of life and not be afraid to take chances. I want a
woman by my side who can be a partner to me, someone I can talk to and share
life with. I’m a sucker for green eyes…and Cassi has all of these attributes.
Tonya: It
sounds to me like you’re still stuck on Cassi.
Gabe: You
could say that, but she told me never to contact her when she left ten years
ago and I’ve honored her wish. It’s been hard but I held onto hope that one day
she’d return to the ranch, so I’ve stayed there.
Tonya: That’s a long time to wait for one woman! Did
you date other women?
Gabe: Not
many. The ranch keeps me busy and if you get a woman in your head, sometimes
other aspects of your life fall apart…unless she’s your soul mate. I met her
once…she left…and I’ve not met another woman like Cassi in ten years, so I stay
busy on the ranch.
Tonya: That
tells me that you’re a one-woman man, hon. Gabe, thank you for taking time out
from your hard work on the ranch to chat with me.
Ladies,
there you have it! Is he someone you’d love to have as a soul mate? Yummy! I’ll
let you in on a secret…not all handsome men are as down to earth as Gabe. Your
soul mate could already be in your life! Thank you for stopping by. Click on my website, then click my blog tab and get into the current contest I have going on - I'm giving away $25 gift cards!
