There are many authors I have read and some I haven't heard of (but intend on looking into). I just wanted to add that I enjoyed reading Heather Grahams historical romances: The Florida Series (6 books), and One wore gray, One wore blue, And one rode west just to name a few.

I am on a cowboy roll currently (don't ask! :P). Would love recommendations of books that involve cowboys. I don't care if there isn't any sex involved so long as its a good story.

I posted this on another thread. You may also want to check out her English Lord series that's set in Texas. It's about 3 English lords kind of banished from their homeland and the new life they make in Texas. Then this series goes into her English/American heiress series. I Highly recommend this also.

Also, I'm a big romance reader...this is an old series but very moving and
all 3 books are great! They are standalones, but they are best when read together.

Texas Destiny

She was his brother's bride . . . .

Arriving on the Fort Worth train, Miss Amelia Carson, mail-order bride, had never met Dallas Leigh, the Texan she promised to marry. The tall cowboy at the station wasn't Dallas. He was Houston, Dallas's brother, sent to escort her on the rugged three-week trek to the ranch where Dallas waited. Brought up in war-ravaged Georgia, Amelia thought Dallas's letters made Texas sound like heaven, a place for her dreams to grow with the right man beside her.

And his only love. . . .

By all appearances, Houston Leigh would hardly be considered the "right man." The war he survived had scarred him inside and out, and he was little competition for his handsome brother. But from the moment Houston met Amelia, he knew she possessed the courage this wild land needed. She had eyes that could see past his wounded face to his soul. And he would fight any man--except his brother--for her heart. Now he and Amelia were riding down dangerous trails, sleeping under the stars, and, God help them, they were falling in love. . . .

Texas Glory

She was wed to a stranger who would show her the way to freedom and love . . .

Ever since her mother's death, Cordelia McQueen has been a virtual prisoner in her father's house. But now everything had changed. Shamelessly traded in a battle for land and water rights, she was thrust into an unfamiliar world as the bride of Dallas Leigh.

Dallas had given his life to the land. Now he would build a town that would put West Texas on the map. But as he gazed into the eyes of the lovely stranger who belonged to him, he caught a glimpse of another empire--a warm, radiant empire of the heart. Was this a woman to walk beside him, as, together, they carved out a future rich with the radiant promise of love?

I love Julie Garwood too. Ransom is my favorite followed by The Bride, The Wedding and The Secret. I don't remember how many times I've reread these 4 books.
