    Interview with Mary J. McCoy-Dressel

    Why did you write this book?
    Some readers wanted to see one of the characters from previous books in the Bull Rider Series get his own happy ending. After careful consideration, I chose to write this third book. While not only giving the hero and heroine of this series another book, I figured out a way to write his story right alongside theirs.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    Honestly, I have to say that I love reading what I write—cowboys and western romance—97% of the time I read contemporary. This doesn’t mean I never read other genres because I do, depending on what the story is about, or if it is a favorite author outside of the western genre.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    This is difficult because I love so many fictional book characters. I hope it’s okay to go with a TV character instead—the one and only Duncan MacLeod from the Highlander series! One reason I call him my favorite character from fiction is for his tenacity and courage, not to mention he’s doggone sexy.
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?
    I’m publishing another western romance in October 2016, which is Book #1 in a brand new spin-off series. A second book in this new series will be published sometime in 2017. Plus, I’m currently writing Book #4 in the Double Dutch Ranch Series.
    Please tell us about your latest book.
