But he’ll still wrangle her heart
When social worker Sierra Dunn seeks an activity for the rebellious kids at Phoenix House, she soon learns she’s not in Denver anymore. Sierra is eager to get back home to her inner-city work, and the plan doesn’t include forming an attachment in Wyoming−especially not to a ruggedly handsome and surprisingly gentle local rodeo hero.
“Realistic and romantic… Kennedy’s forte is in making relationships genuine and heartfelt as she exposes vulnerabilities with tenderness and good humor.”—Booklist Starred Review

How to Kiss a Cowboy
Cowboys of Decker Ranch series
by Joanne Kennedy
This cowboy is living a charmed life
Winning comes naturally to bronc rider Brady Caine. Ruggedly handsome, careless, and charismatic, the rodeo fans adore him and the buckle bunnies are his for the taking. He’s riding high when he lands an endorsement deal with Lariat Western Wear that pairs him up with champion barrel racer Suze Carlyle.
Until one wrong move changes everything
A stupid move on Brady’s part lands Suze in the hospital, her career in tatters. Now it’s a whole new game for both of them. Brady is desperate to help Suze rebuild her life, but he’s the last person she wants around now. Suze’s got plenty of grit and determination—learning to trust Brady again is a very different matter.

Acknowledgments
Anyone who has read my historical romances knows that I always make a sincere attempt to bring an element of realism to all of my stories. While this might seem easy in a writing a contemporary series, I don’t think I ever could have done it without Kail and Renee Mantle of Montana Horses in Three Forks, Montana. My brief taste of Montana ranching was invaluable in helping me to understand the people and the real life struggles and helped to bring my vision for this series more vividly to life. Thank you so very much, Kail and Renee, for your generosity and friendship. I will treasure both always.
I’d also like to express my sincere appreciation to my two beta readers, Jill and Lee Anne. It was no small thing for me to leap three centuries. Your support and encouragement have been a true blessing.
Last, but certainly not least, I wish to offer my sincere thanks to my editor, Deb Werksman, for giving me the opportunity to foray into contemporary romance, and to the wonderful editorial and creative staff at Sourcebooks for all of their contributions.
