HOPE FOR THE HOLIDAYS Veterinarian Olivia O’Ballivan communicates easily with animals, but men are another story. Especially globe-trotting architect-turned-rancher Tanner Quinn. The grouchy single father just wants to be left alone, but he needs Olivia’s help. His daughter’s pony is sick and he desperately needs someone to care for it.

When Tanner’s daughter, Sophie, comes home in time for the holidays, they conspire together to get Tanner into the Christmas spirit. But Olivia will need to work a special kind of Christmas magic if she wants to heal Tanner’s stone heart. It will take a holiday miracle to transform Tanner into a rancher—and family man—for all seasons. FREE BONUS STORY INCLUDED IN THIS VOLUME!

As business interests have commercialized the American West and publishers and studios have created compelling imagery, the expectations of readers and moviegoers have influenced perceptions of the cowboy as a hero. This book describes the evolution of the cowboy hero as a mythic persona created by dime novels, television and Hollywood. Much of our concept of the cowboy comes to us from movies and the book's main focus is his changing image in cinema. The development of the hero image and the fictional West is traced from early novels and films to the present, along with shifting audience expectations and economic pressures.
