StarMyst #3
Rodeo
For all that he helped his foster brothers and sister, StarMyst Conclave had never been Cord Sartain's home. It'd simply been the means through which he'd tried to escape his past and his future. The death of his foster father's had changed everything, so Cord continued to do the only thing he could—use rodeos to run away.
Running into the sole survivor of Yellowwild Conclave had changed his world once again. The golden girl of rodeo, barrel racer Lainey Murphy, had fallen from grace, her shine tarnished by allegations of drugging her horses to win. With another Conclave to save, and the prospect of his own Conclave coming clean from its role in the Sorcerer War, Cord realizes he can't run anymore.
Except, can a man who's done nothing except run, finally take a stand? Or will he just ride on to the next rodeo?

About the author
Mary Winter
125 books90 followersMary commutes between her dream home near the Mark Twain national forest in Missouri and her current residence in Iowa. She lives with a menagerie of animals including an opinionated horse and a cat who was a dog in past life. When not writing spicy tales of erotic romance, she enjoys writing science fiction and fantasy, spending time with her horse, and enjoying the outdoors. Lucky for her, her partner (hero) shares these same passions, and usually both of them can be found in their respective dens writing.
And it’s not far from the truth. Mary began writing in high school after she discovered Silhouette Desire romance novels and realized that she wanted to be the one to write stories that carried readers away from their oh-so-boring lives. She has a deep appreciation and love of the natural, the spirtual, and the metaphysical, which has led to her running Jupiter Gardens and writing for new age and pagan magazines. She is attuned to Reiki II and reads tarot cards.
Right now her household includes six cats, ranging in age from less than six months (Tenzin, former feral kitten) to seventeen years (Tigger, diabetic kitty), her horse, two parrots, a finch flight, a geriatric parakeet flight, and her partner, the hero of her own personal romance story.
Her favorite television shows are Torchwood, Bones, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Dr. Who (new), Battlestar Galactica (new), Babylon 5, Farscape, and Sex in the City. Her favorite movies are Spaceballs, The Cutting Edge, Serenity, Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, the LoTR trilogy, and probably a few others she’s forgetting. Her musical tastes range from Enya, Clannad, David Arkenstone, David & Steve Gordon, Scott McDonald, and AfroCelt Sound System to Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, and others.
