  From the desk of Katie Lane

  Dear Reader,

  When I was little I used to love watching The Andy Griffith Show reruns. I loved everything about Mayberry—from Floyd’s barbershop where all the town gossip took place to the tree-lined lake where Andy took his son fishing. I would daydream for hours about living in Mayberry, eating Aunt Bee’s home cooking, tagging after Barney to listen to his latest harebrained scheme, or just hanging out with Opie. And even though my life remained in a larger city, these daydreams stuck with me over the years. So much so that I ended up snagging a redheaded, freckled-faced Opie of my own… with one tiny difference.

  My Opie came from Texas.

  Welcome to Bramble! Mayberry on Texas peyote.

  You won’t find Andy, Barney, or Aunt Bee in town. But you will find a sheriff who enjoys grand theft auto, a matchmaking mayor, a hairdresser whose “ex’s” fill half of Texas, and a bunch of meddling townsfolk. And let’s not forget the pretty impostor, the smoking hot cowboy, the feisty actress, and the very naughty bad boy.

  So I hope you’ll stop by because the folks of Bramble, Texas are just itchin’ to show y’all a knee-slappin’ good time. GOING COWBOY CRAZY, my first romance set in Bramble, is out now.

  Much Love and Laughter,
