REVIEW OF DELORES FOSSEN'S JOSH (The Lawmen of Silver Creek Ranch) AND BONUS AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT & GIVEAWAY



Deputy Josh Ryland was an all out FBI agent up until about five months ago until he was shot in the line of duty and almost lost his life. Now recovering from his wounds, but suffering from some serious PTSD, Josh is now living on his cousins' Silver Creek Ranch and working as the town Deputy. When Josh and his cousins stumble across women in captivity, he is more than shocked to discover that one of the kidnapped women is another FBI agent and former lover, Jaycee Finney, who also happens to be pregnant.

Jaycee Finney had just come from the doctor's office where it was confirmed she was pregnant, one minute she is walking out of the building, the next she is taken into captivity by evil people who want to profit by selling babies. Jaycee has been in the baby farm for three months when Josh frees her and her cabin mates from certain death, but that is only the beginning of the troubles for all involved. The Rylands and Jaycee still need to find out who is in charge of the criminal acts against these young women and put them out of business. Especially now that Jaycee is still in danger and Josh is going to be a daddy.

JOSH (The Lawmen of Silver Creek Ranch) by Delores Fossen grabs you from the first minute. There is no time to breathe before the the action all comes into play. I absolutely love how Delores Fossen takes such real and dark issues and brings them to light. She isn't afraid to go there and I admire her for that. Ms. Fossen is a great storyteller. The characters are strong and interesting. JOSH is the seventh book in The Lawmen of Silver Creek series and it never gets old with the fresh and exciting tales of these dedicated men and women of Silver Creek and the ones they love.

SPOTLIGHT ON DELORES FOSSEN



  Favorite Cowboy?
 Real or fictional: As a child, I was obsessed with Little Joe Cartwright from Bonanza. I wanted to marry him and live on the Ponderosa. Loved Marshal Dillon, too, from Gunsmoke, but I didn't want to marry him. I wanted to have a badge and help him find bad guys.

   Favorite dessert?
 Ice cream. It doesn't even have to be the premium stuff. I just love ice cream.

   Favorite drink?
 Margarita and chocolate malts. Not together though, lol

   What kind of car do you drive and why?
 A Ford Focus because of the great gas mileage and because it can park itself. I can't parallel park. I don't mean I'm bad at it--I mean I can't do it at all.

    Guilty pleasure?
 So many, lol. I love watching old episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Love dark comedies like the movie, Seven Psychopaths. And popcorn! I love popcorn so much that sometimes it's what I have for dinner.

  Do you have a favorite book from your childhood?
 The Ghost of Dibble Hollow by May Wallace. I must have read it a hundred times.

  Favorite place in the world and why?
 Ireland. Love the people, food and energy there. Plus, they really value authors. If you mention you're an author, you have instant friends. :)

   Book boyfriend… Is there a hero in either your books or someone else’s that you would love to be real and know more about?
 For someone else's book, I would love to meet JD Robb's Roarke. Sigh. For one of my books, I'd love to meet Grayson Ryland. He helped me write my entire Lawmen of Silver Creek series, and I'd love to hang out with him.

   Do you have a pet peeve?
 traffic jams. I hate them. I also hate having my internet go out, something that happens way too often.

   Are you superstitious, if so what is that superstition? 
Not really superstitious, but my life seems smoother when I make a schedule and stick to it. It's when I'm off schedule that bad/frustrating things seem to happen to me--like getting stuck in traffic jams.

 What would you like readers to know about you?
 That I'm happy, love life and especially love writing my stories.


 Famous last words? 
Never give up, never surrender. :) It's from the movie, Galaxy Quest, and it's a good motto for life.

  16. Popcorn for supper - yum! But chocolate has to go with it -- maybe that chocolate malt?
    My sister says when her husband is at a business meeting, or even gone on the occasional business trip, popcorn and a chocolate candy bar is what she'll have for supper. Hubby & I usually have it for a late evening snack.
    Looking forward to reading some of your Silver Creek series -- don't think I've had the privilege yet.
