A CHRISTMAS AS BIG AS TEXAS!
His entire town was counting on Chase Langtry to win the championship title. Instead, the injured bull rider is slinking back to the family ranch. But how can he stay out of the spotlight with relentless reporter Nola West following him home from Vegas? His humiliating loss just can’t be her next story!
Nola’s attraction to the youngest son of Ramblewood’s First Family is shaking her hard-won confidence. And it looks like the only scoop she’ll get is covering the Mistletoe Rodeo charity event. She’s never been a big fan of the holiday. Until Chase vows to show her a Christmas she’ll never forget...

“What’s so funny?”
Nola leaned in and playfully pushed at his chest. She didn’t expect him to snake his arms around her waist and tug her flat against him.
“Mr. Langtry,” Nola said in her best Scarlett O’Hara voice. “I do declare.”
“I’m sorry, ma’am, but it’s tradition,” Chase replied with a pretty good Rhett Butler impression of his own.
“Tradition?”
“I do believe I spotted some mistletoe in this here tree earlier today.”
“Mistletoe? Above us, right now?”
“Why, surely, ma’am. ’Tis the season and all. You wouldn’t want to break a long-standing tradition now, would you?”
“No,” Nola said. “I wouldn’t want to do that.”
A hairbreadth away, Chase moved even closer, his lips brushing hers. Afraid he’d pull back, Nola laced her fingers behind his neck and deepened their kiss. Her lips parted, inviting him in, not the least bit shy about having a taste of Chase for herself. So much for her earlier decision not to be brazen.
I am a firm believer that Christmas should be about family. When I began the Welcome to Ramblewood series, much of it centered around my own family, especially Joe Langtry, whose legacy is the driving force behind these books. Joe Langtry in real life was my Grandpa Joe, who died when I was sixteen. Writing about him and my Grandma Kay, who we lost a few years ago, helps me keep their memory alive.
Chase Langtry has been surrounded by family his entire life, especially around the holidays. While an over-the-top traditional Christmas was the norm for him, Nola West has never really celebrated the day, let alone experienced the weeks of festivities Ramblewood has planned.
Each of us has our own holiday traditions we pass down through the generations. Nola doesn’t have any. As an outsider, she’s taken aback by the sheer magnitude in which the entire town celebrates. She’s a little hesitant at first, but who can resist some Ramblewood Christmas cheer?
Mistletoe Rodeo is the sixth book in the Welcome to Ramblewood series...where the door is always open.
