That which is most prized, most valued, most loved: the word sings. An action of being with a shade of holding or owning: I cherish the old rugged cross becomes a statement of more than Christianity, more of belief. I cherish my mother's photograph when she was seven is a pre-memory but so much more a trigger to a series of living memories from childhood, young adult and of-age stages in our relationship of mother-son. Cherish the time we've spent talking writing, living!John Childreynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417651694294092310.post-7494613724353055032019-03-01T07:57:01.017-05:002019-03-01T07:57:01.017-05:00Nina, the word cherish suits you.

You must be floating on Cloud 9. Next month it'll be a year from my debut novel's publication with PRP and being interviewed by Elisabeth Burke. I love the title of your book and the premise of two unlikely people to fall in love. I look forward to reading it and wish you much success.Elizabeth Clementshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07274775414132461532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417651694294092310.post-14962074325919115642019-02-27T15:16:49.517-05:002019-02-27T15:16:49.517-05:00Once more, I'd like to formally thank Elizabet...Once more, I'd like to formally thank Elizabeth for the blog and interview--both things are a writer's dream when first releasing a novel!!! I'm looking forward to reading some of these other authors on the website. I'd also like to mention a few of my favorite Western authors. I've read a lot of the classics--Louis L'Amour, Larry McMurty, Zane Grey, Elmore Leonard, and Cormac McCarthy. His novel, All the Prtetty Horses, inspired a poem I wrote in my poetry collection of poems of the West. But I'm most pleased to say that my cowboy hero, Cayo Bradley, inspired a poem and, thanks to Cheryl Pierson, it's right in the beginning of my novel! I'm so pleased and thankful, Cheryl! I'd also like to say that one of my new favorite writers is C. A. Asbrey. I'm currently reading her2nd book in the series: Innocent as Sin (I love all of her titles!) Thanks to everyone who has left a comment or sent me good wishes!

He would go to the western section and get a paperback for him and i would just browse the library so happy that i was out and about. We then would watch westerns on tv and then at night he would read. I loved the interview today so good.

enjoyable....The blog and interview were great— very<br />enjoyable.<br />Although Western literature is not my favorite genre, I recall reading and loving<br />Lonesome Dove. I just finished reading <br />Nina Romano’s The Girl Who Loved Cayo Bradley. Romano obviously spent a huge amount of time researching the Jicarrila Apaches which are an exciting part of the book. <br />The love story between Darby and Cayo is so beautifully written— so touching.<br />I loved this novel. It will stay in my memory and I recommend it to all readers.Jane Brownleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17423628113012189904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417651694294092310.post-68516820729340464702019-02-26T10:13:44.762-05:002019-02-26T10:13:44.762-05:00Nina, I can't say enough how much I loved THE ...Nina, I can't say enough how much I loved THE GIRL WHO LOVED CAYO BRADLEY. What a story! I have to admit, I had my doubts throughout the book as to how in the world you were going to make it all come out right in the end, but I was not disappointed--I can't stop thinking about that ending. It will stay with me for a very long time, and with all the reading I do, that is saying something! <br /><br />My sisters and my mom were all wonderful cooks, but I didn't get that "gene"--wish I had--I can cook well, but I don't enjoy it like they did. I envy you being able cook without even thinking about it. I really have to keep my mind on it when I do it. <br /><br />I have a lot of western romances I love, love, love. Shane is a western romance that is really different and special--I love it because of the way the characters interact and how it's all seen from the young boy's point of view--and how the reader understands the deeper meaning of what's going on, but the little boy doesn't--he sees it through his childish slant. <br /><br />I loved Conagher--not a romance like we'd normally think of a romance, but oh, what a love story that was. One of my favorite western romances is Nobody's Darling by Teresa Medieros--it was a story with a different slant both in plot and characters. Golden Nights by Christine Monson is a good one--not at all what you'd expect and what a roller-coaster ride, though the buildups are slow--it's worth it. <br /><br />I love Linda Broday's stories, and Tracy Garrett writes excellent western romance stories. Patti Sherry-Crews had a wonderful tale in Margarita and the Hired Gun, and she just released another one, Den of Thieves. She does excellent research! I could go on and on, because I do read so much, but for me, the combination of memorable characters and unconventional plots are what make a western romance special. <br /><br />Congratulations on your new release, Nina! We're so glad to have you with us at Prairie Rose Publications!Cheryl Piersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18116526340220274282noreply@blogger.com
