Animal

Dog

Artist

Norman Rockwell

Board Game

Ah…none? Haha. I don’t love board games. The only ones I like require very little thinking—just luck. So I guess I’ll say Left, Center, Right. I keep this in my purse and we play it at restaurants with our kids when we’re waiting for food. It’s very simple and pretty fun.

Book

Courting Morrow Little by Laura Frantz.

(There’s so many, but this is the first that came to mind. That and Redeeming Love.)

Colour

Green. I love green—it’s fresh and reminds me of spring and summer.

Flower

Lilacs are my absolute favorite because of the smell.

Ice-cream

Chocolate chip. Or mint chocolate chip. (Growing up, we called this peppermint bon bon.)

Movie

While You Were Sleeping is one of my go-to movies.

Non-writing activity

Reading 🙂 Or binge watching something on Netflix.

Reading genre

Inspirational romance. (Shocking, right? :))

Season

Summer! I love warm weather and going to the pool. Colorado has fabulous summer weather. It always cools down at night.

Snack

Popcorn or cheese.

Sport (watch or play)

Softball was my favorite to play. I also like volleyball and basketball and will watch any of them. 🙂 Especially if my kids are playing.

TV show

Parenthood or Friday Night Lights

The Rancher’s Surprise Daughter

A reunion he never expected…
In this Colorado Grooms novel

Luc Wilder’s surprised when his ex-girlfriend Cate Malory arrives at his Colorado guest ranch. And he’s downright stunned when she introduces him to his three-year-old daughter, Ruby. Bonding with the bubbly little girl is easy—Ruby loves ranch life, just like her daddy. But after all the secrets, can Luc and Cate find a way to trust in each other again?

Here’s a favourite scene of Jill’s from The Rancher’s Surprise Daughter…

Only Cate could question the motive behind a brownie. “Just come on.” He snagged her arm, directing her. If he waited for her to decide, they’d be here all day. His hand felt right at home against her skin, but he ignored the increased rhythm in his chest at being near her. She smelled like flowers and good pieces of the past.

Luc matched his longer stride to Cate’s shorter one. He probably had close to half a foot on her in height, but she made up for it in spunk. Case in point: she shook his hand off her arm like she was dealing with an insect instead of a man. His mouth twitched. As long as she kept walking, he wouldn’t fight her.

What was it about Cate that both infuriated him and intrigued him at the same time? Just her presence wreaked havoc on him. He wanted to tuck into her and take a good long breath, as if he’d been holding his for the years during their separation and his lungs could finally function again. But he wasn’t allowed those kinds of liberties anymore, and he wouldn’t take them if he could.

He and Cate had bigger things to focus on than their wayward relationship. Like their daughter. Which was exactly what he wanted to talk to her about.

“Joe made brownies. I could smell them when I was in my office earlier. They’re amazing right out of the oven.”

Her sideways glance included more narrowing of those caramel eyes. “Are you trying to bribe me into a conversation with the promise of a brownie, Lucas Wilder?”

“Yes, ma’am. That’s exactly what I’m doing.”

Thanks Jill!
