We were sad at the recent departure of Filly Laura Drake but her life has taken an exciting turn and we’re just busting our buttons with pride for her. We know she’ll have lots of fun in her new venture.
The saying is true that when one door closes another opens. We’re so happy to announce that Jessie Gussman has put her horse in our corral! Yippee! I caught the Fillies doing a happy dance when they didn’t know I was watching. Yep. That’s right. But it does my heart good to see them kicking up their heels.
But back to my announcement. Here’s some scoop on Miss Jessie.
USA Today best-selling author Jessie Gussman writes sweet and inspirational romance from her farm in central Virginia. Having attended, but never graduating from the school of hard knocks, Jessie uses real life on the farm to inspire her cowboy, rural and blue-collar fiction. When she’s not chasing kids, cows and the occasional roll-away haybale, Jessie enjoys wading in Naked Creek and not cleaning her house. Most of the time her main goal is to keep from catching herself on fire…again.
If you enjoy fun stories with vivid characters showcasing strong families with a ribbon of faith tying everything together, you’ll enjoy Jessie’s books. And if you want to check her out yourself, you can go to her website. http://www.jessiegussman.com
While you’re there, sign up for her newsletter and get a free copy of The Cowboy’s Second Chance. That’s a big Yee-Haw!
Miss Jessie’s newest series is a Heartland Cowboy Christmas. I’m gonna have to ask Santa to put all four under my tree. Nothing’s better than a cowboy at Christmas. Lordy, Lordy! So there you have it straight from the horse’s….uh mule’s….mouth. Miss Jessie will start blogging on Thursday, December 9th so mark your calendar and help us give her a big welcome.
