Meet Jaxon Cooper

Age: I’m 28
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Superior, Wisconsin
Profession: Law Enforcement
Ethnicity: Caucasian

Please provide a physical description of yourself.

I’m 6 ft 1 inch tall, with sandy blond hair and hazel eyes. I’ve been told I have a muscular build.

Please tell us a little about yourself.

I’ve been a deputy sheriff for Pinecone Creek for three years. Working in a small town like this and helping the people here, well, I’m living my dream! Martial arts are also an important part of my life-I teach karate at my friend, Rick Sanders’ dojo. The kids’ enthusiasm makes them fun to work with.

My dad died when I was twelve and left behind my mom, me, and five younger siblings. We all felt her love, but she didn’t have an easy time of it! That’s why sharing my forever woman with my best friend, Rick Sanders feels right. Our wife, the mother of our kids, will never be left by herself.

Who is the significant other in your life?

Piper Thomas is my most significant other. She’s the woman who has agreed to share her life with Rick and me. I can’t wait to start a family, find a house, get a big dog and live our happily ever after.

If you haven’t made a bucket list before, perhaps now would be a good time. Who knows? It might inspire another book. While you’re at it, how about telling us about some of your other favorite things? Here are the questions.

The official bucket list of Jaxon Cooper: Marry Piper Thomas (hopefully sooner rather than later!); Learn to make homemade pasta noodles; Set up an aquarium with tropical fish (and the fish live); Plant a garden; Ride a rollercoaster; Homestead in Alaska; Go on a cruise-to anywhere; Hold a tarantula without screaming; Watch the Packers win the Superbowl-at the game; Fish for salmon on Lake Superior.

What is your birth order?

I’m the oldest, so I’ve always been the one who looked after the other kids when my mom worked. That’s where my love of law and order comes from! Only one person could be in charge, and that was usually me.

Tell us about your favorite toy as a child.

I’m not sure if it counts as a toy, or transportation, but my bike. It got me to school, and work. Even more, some days I needed to get away from everyone, so I’d hop on and peddle for all I was worth-wind in my hair, bumping along-it was great. Sometimes I’d pretend my bike was a horse and I’d roll down the street searching for bad guys with my cowboy hat tied around my neck while it slapped against my back.

Describe your favorite food and how it’s prepared.

Spaghetti and meatballs! I’m good with any kind of sauce-extra basil, mushrooms, garlic-whatever. The meatballs need parmesan cheese in them too. A nice salad, and garlic bread! I’m there!

Tell us about your best friend.

Piper is my best friend. She’s a free spirit with a compassionate heart. In some ways, she and Rick are alike-they both rely on a gym to help them through a bad day. But Piper uses what she’s learned through sports and competition to build confidence in herself and her decisions. When she’s happy she smiles and laughs, when she’s mad, she scrubs greasy grills! I can be myself around Piper. I don’t have to hide what I’m feeling.

I have two best friends. Deputy, and black belt Rick Sanders is the other. He’s reliable, loyal, by the book, and always in control of himself. Rick doesn’t like to talk about, or show, his emotions. I think that’s why he likes to work out at the studio. Physical exercise helps him get rid of negativity in a healthy way. But I know he always has my back.

What are two places you would like to visit before you die, and why?

Lake Superior is probably the next best thing, but I’d like to visit an ocean. I don’t care which one-east or west-but I’d like to bury my toes in the sand, maybe collect a few seashells. Utah, Arizona or somewhere out west is my second choice. I loved playing sheriff as a kid! It would be fun to see if my imagination matches the reality of a desert landscape.

Where is a place you would never like to return, and why?

Hmm-I’m not really comfortable in big cities-take your pick of any. No privacy, crowded, noise-lol, cities remind me of my house growing up.

Who is someone you would like to meet, and why?

Wyatt Earp! Best sheriff ever! The way he faced down those bad guys-he had real swag.

Who is someone you would like to avoid, and why?

My sixth-grade teacher! Man, she was one tough lady. I couldn’t get away with anything in her class. She’d stand by the blackboard and stare down anyone that dared to talk. She’d make a great Wyatt Earp!

If you could time travel to any date, what would it be, and what would you do there?

I’d go back to the old west in the 1880’s-be a sheriff with a big badge and a great horse! Ride around, tip my ten-gallon hat to the ladies-yep, that would be fun!

Meet Pia Manning

Why did you choose this character for the interview today?

I’ve always written character interviews for my heroines. I thought the heroes deserved a little love too! I had a lot of fun exploring Jaxon Cooper’s childhood. Knowing that his dad passed and he spent time riding herd on his siblings made it easy to understand why he’s in law enforcement and believes in menage marriages and families.

Are any sequels planned for this book?

But of course! Creek 4 is on the clock! Nurse Practitioner Emily Slater moves into Pinecone Creek hoping she has found her forever home. Emily fancies herself a DIY type of woman! We’ll see…

What genre(s) would you like to write that you haven’t tried yet?

I love horror stories-creepy, spooky, shivery kinds of tales. My scary stories aren’t erotic romances, so for me, it’s a very different style of writing. A couple of them have been accepted by horror anthologies, but I’ve never written an entire horror novel. You could say that’s on my bucket list.

What would your readers be surprised to learn about you?

I’m a monarch farmer. Really! I collect monarch caterpillars, feed and keep them safe in an aquarium with a screened lid until they form a chrysalis. Once the monarch emerges I release it. I’ve posted about it on my website on the North of Hwy 8 page (2022 In Search of Monarchs). There are even pictures!
