Love on the Range is a wonderful
historical romance written by my friend, Jessica Nelson. I especially love it
because the setting is in Harney County, near
Burns, Oregon. I have connections to Burns—my
son-in-law is from there.
I loved Jessica’s story
and I know you will love it too! The characters, Gracie and Trevor, are
delightful. And Gracie’s never-ending search for the elusive secret agent,
Striker, totally “hooked me.”
Here are a few questions
I asked Jessica:
What inspired you to
write this book?
It's
hard to remember now, but when I was researching influenza out of curiosity, a
scene came to me of a girl sent west, riding on a train. That's when I started
writing this story. :-)
What is the writing
process like for you?
Difficult!
LOL! I do it when I'm not too tired but I tend to procrastinate, especially
during the middle of the story.
What advice do
you have for aspiring writers?
Keep
learning, keep writing and never give up. ;-)

My blog is all about
Hawaii, so I'd like to know when you plan to visit the islands, silly??!!!
I've
never been but it's on my husband's to-visit list so I'm sure I'll end up going
someday. I would love to see the waterfalls and volcanoes!

Cool interview, Cheryl! Love On The Range was a great book! Maybe we can look forward to a novel set in Hawaii when Jessica and her hubby go to visit :-)
ReplyDeleteWouldn't that be cool??? Hear that, Jessica??? Time to do some historical research on early Hawaii, and write a cool romance novel.
DeleteThanks for the suggestion, Brandi.
