Barbara White Daille Cowboy’s Little Surprise @BarbaraWDaille #RLFblog #cowboys
Barbara White Daille author of The Cowboy’s Little Surprise answers
five easy questions to help readers get to know her better.Author Bio
Barbara White Daille lives with her husband in the sunny U.S.
Southwest, where they don’t mind the lizards in their front yard but could do without
the scorpions in the bathroom.A writer from the age of nine and a novelist since eighth grade,
Barbara is now an award-winning author with a number of novels to her credit.The first book in The Hitching Post Hotel series, The Cowboy’s
Little Surprise, debuts in April 2015, followed by A Rancher of Her Own in July
and an as-yet-untitled book in December.When you read for pleasure,
what kind of books do you choose?Romance, romantic suspense, mystery. Sometimes YA. Whatever it
is, I like something with a romantic relationship in it.What’s your favorite down-home
family style meal?Pot roast with carrots, potatoes, onions, and brown gravy, with
plenty of everything for leftovers. Yum!What is your go-to meal
when you dine out?Really, Alaskan King crab legs, but since they’re pricey, I only
do that if we’re celebrating something special. On a regular night out, anything
Italian—lasagna, baked ziti, stuffed shells. A salad on the side. A full bread basket
with warm olive oil and herbs. My only regret is most Italian restaurants don’t
serve brownies or chocolate cake!Describe the perfect vacation.A condo near a beach, where we could take long walks at night,
view the stars and listen to the surf. Nearby, there would have to be good restaurants,
an ice cream parlor, and a shop that sold decadent chocolate desserts. And of course,
I’d have to have access to many quiet, comfortable spots where I could curl up with
a book.Tell us about your favorite
toy as a child.My favorite toy was a book. I don’t mean to “cheat,”
but I wasn’t into much of anything else. I spent all my free time reading—and wish
I could still do that now. A book was always at the top of my list when anyone asked
what I wanted for my birthday or Christmas, and I loved loved LOVED getting the
next Bobbsey Twins or Nancy Drew or Trixie Belden in the series.About the Book

5 Easy Questions: Barbara White Daille @BarbaraWDaille #RLFblog #Contemporary
The Sheriff’s Son 5 Easy Questions is an interview is designed to be quick, easy,
and fun. Today’s guest is Barbara White Daille.Would you rather stay inside and watch snow falling, or get
out in it and build a snowman?Stay inside. Preferably on the couch with a good book, snuggled
beneath an afghan and/or close to a crackling fire in the fireplace (if I had one).
Oh—and with a tray of hot chocolate and cookies by my side.What was your favorite book as a child?Wow, is this a tough
question. I would have trouble picking a favorite series, let alone a favorite book.
Really, there were so many….But I’ll take a stab at what’s bringing back fond memories at
this very moment—and that would be Harriet the Spy.I connected with Harriet because, like me, she always knew she
was going to be a writer. And I loved getting a peek into her notebook filled with
observations about her life and all the quirky characters she ran into.What were you like when you were in school?Shy, quiet, introverted, and with my nose usually stuck in a
book. Pretty much the way I am now.If the hero of your latest book called you on the phone, what
would be a perfect ringtone for him?Since my hero’s a deputy sheriff and I would be channeling my
heroine, the ringtone would be an oldie but goodie: I Fought the Law.Remember that one?Three-quarters of the lyrics are “I fought the law and the
law won.” And since you know I write romance, it’s probably not giving anything
away to say that…eventually…Deputy Sheriff Tanner does win Sarah’s heart.What is your go-to meal to order when you dine out? Your favorite
“I know it will hit the spot” item.No-brainer on this one! My favorite dish is Alaskan King Crab
Legs with plenty of hot melted butter.Because they’re on the pricey side, I tie them into a “reward”
for hitting an important milestone, which usually means turning in the manuscript
for the next book…or the sale of a new book…or the release of the latest book. As
The Sheriff’s Son had already been out in print and has just been re-released for
the first time in e-book format, I figured that entitles me to celebrate this book
twice!About the Book
Title The Sheriff’s SonGenre Contemporary RomanceAuthor Name Barbara White DailleBook heat level (based on movie ratings): PGThe Sheriff’s SonWhy Is Tanner Jones Back In Town?Seven-year-old Kevin has been a handful
for single mom Sarah Lindstrom, and when the new sheriff walks through her door
holding her son by the scruff of his neck for egging his car, she knows she’s lost
control. But can she control herself—and keep the secret she’s kept for so many
years?Tanner Jones has no idea Kevin is his
son—he lost the right to that information when he abandoned Sarah soon after graduation.
Just because he’s back in town doesn’t mean he can waltz into her life—and Kevin’s—to
pick up where they left off. But Sarah can’t deny the feelings she still harbors
for Tanner, and can’t deny how her son is benefiting from his attentions.When Tanner
finds out the truth, what is he going to do?Buy This Book
