Book Description

December 12, 2008
A LITTLE R & R. When widow Rebecca Scott finally takes the vacation of her dreams as a 'dude' at a Colorado ranch, she never expects to lasso the heart of sexy rancher Rafe Lassiter. Time away from home and routine is supposed to give Rebecca the jolt she needs to plan the rest of her life. It is not supposed to be for sly innuendos, steamy kisses or sensual discoveries. Rafe has always avoided the dudes, focusing his attention, heart and soul, on his ranch. Suddenly he finds himself playing host to the most appealing woman he's ever met. Before long, he yearns to corral Rebecca for good, but understands that taming this particular filly is going to require all the patience and skill he can muster. Complicating his master plan are his brothers, her grown kids, and a secret hidden within the nearby Anasazi ruins. *** "When I was in my mid forties, I decided to take horseback riding lessons. Doing something I'd never done not only enervated my spirit, but gave me the idea for this story. A Little R & R, a story about a woman scaling new horizons, has a special place in my heart. I hope it will find one in yours, too." ~ Morgan ~

More About the Author

Morgan has been a writer since she was first able to pick up a pen. In the beginning it was a hobby, a way to create a world of her own, and who could resist the allure of that? Then as she grew and matured, life got in the way, as life often does. She got married and had three children, and worked in the field of accounting, for that was the practical thing to do and the children did need to be fed. And all the time she was being practical, she would squirrel herself away on quiet Sunday afternoons, and write.

Most children are raised knowing the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule. Morgan's children also learned the Paper Rule: thou shalt not throw out any paper that has thy mother's words upon it.

Believing in tradition, Morgan ensured that her children's children learned this rule, too.

Life threw Morgan a curve when, in 2002, she underwent emergency triple by-pass surgery. Second chances are to be cherished, and with the encouragement and support of her husband, Morgan decided to use hers to do what she'd always dreamed of doing: writing full time. "I can't tell you how much I love what I do. I am truly blessed."

Morgan has always loved writing romance. It is the one genre that can incorporate every other genre within its pulsating heart. Romance showcases all that human kind can aspire to be. And, she admits, she's a sucker for a happy ending.

Morgan's favorite hobbies are reading, cooking, and traveling - though she would rather you didn't mention that last one to her husband. She has too much fun teasing him about having become a "Traveling Fool" of late.

Morgan lives in Southwestern Ontario with a cat that has an attitude, a dog that has no dignity, and her husband of thirty-seven years, David.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Little R & R, February 20, 2009
This review is from: A Little R & R (Paperback)
Rebecca Scott is finally getting to go on the vacation of her dreams. For years she went wherever her husband wanted but now that she is a widow, she has decided she wants to spend the summer as a "dude" on a Colorado ranch. What she doesn't expect to happen is for her to be instantly drawn to Rafe Lassiter, the real life cowboy who picks her up at the airport. She especially doesn't expect him to take a personal interest in her, and her summer.

Rafe is stunned to meet Rebecca at the airport. It is like finally finding the other half of himself. He can't stop thinking of her and even decides to spend time with her. This is funny as he has always avoided the "dudes" like the plague. But, can he convince the woman of his dreams that it is ok for her to marry him, and that her kids will be ok with this, eventually?

Add to this some steamy interactions, some intrigue as there appears to be more than ruins in the local tribal ruin site and you have a wonderful story.

A Little R & R is another wonderful tale by Morgan Ashbury. As usual her characters have a lot of depth. She is also unafraid to write about an older woman who has a second chance at love. In A Little R & R there are a few sub plots involving neighbors as well as Rafe's brothers that will keep the reader entertained throughout the story. Additionally there is a sinister side of the story dealing with illegal trading. I found A Little R & R a fun afternoon read.
