I’m thrilled to have a special guest author here today to help celebrate my new release, Forever Yours in Christmas Falls. Please give a warm welcome to: SHANNA HATFIELD
Warm greetings to you all! It’s such a treat to be here on Susan’s blog today. For those of you who haven’t met me online, in person, or between the pages of a book, I’m just a farm girl from Eastern Oregon who loves to write. My sweet historical and contemporary romances are filled with sarcasm, humor, hope, and hunky heroes. When I’m not dreaming up dreamy characters, twisting plots, or covertly hiding decadent chocolate from the other occupants of my home, I hangs out with my beloved husband, Captain Cavedweller.
Big, heartfelt congratulations to Susan on her release of Forever Yours in Christmas Falls! This story (and all of them in the Return to Christmas Falls series) sound like such fun! I’m a huge fan of Christmas stories. I love reading them and writing them. My upcoming release Chasing Christmas was a blast to write, especially since two people adamant about staying single end up accidentally married just in time for Christmas.

He certainly didn’t ask Santa for a bride. . .
Professional bull rider Chase Jarrett has the world on a string. The only blight in his idyllic existence is his nosy cousin’s nonstop nagging about his need for more publicity. Tired of listening to her suggestions, he gives her free rein when she hatches a plan to skyrocket his popularity. All he has to do is show up for a phony wedding in Las Vegas. Then Chase discovers the wedding was real, the surprise bride is beautiful, and his sponsors are demanding he remain married.
Shy and introverted, the last thing Jessie Pierce wants is to find herself in the spotlight. But thanks to a meddling so-called best friend, that’s exactly where she’s at. The promise of an all-expenses paid vacation to Las Vegas lures her on an adventure that ends with her unexpectedly married to a hunky bull rider who would draw her out of her shell if she’d let him.
A business proposal leaves the two of them committed to a year of marriage. How hard could it be to remain wed in name only?
Wrap yourself up in the joy of holidays and falling in love in this sweet, lighthearted romance.

wow need to read – love Shanna’s books!
Chanda Harbeson says
Chasing Christmas sounds like a great romance happening during my favorite time of year. I also love Christmas Romances and this one has become a must read for me in the coming weeks. It will be exciting to see how Chase and Jessie progress through their relationship from strangers married in a business agreement to being married in more than name only. Does it really happen that way or is there a different twist. I can’t wait to find out.
Tiffany davis says
I love how Chase’s cousin and est friend to Jessie is able to lure her to Vegas all expenses paid! I love that Jessie is a introvert and doesn’t want the spotlight! Looks like an amazing read!
Charlene Whitehouse says
Professional bull riders. So sexy.
peggy clayton says
Right away prof bull riding I loved going with my son. Now since severely disabled i love reading and watching bull riders they are so good and sometimes make it all the way! Thank you for the chance
Pam Flynn says
Wow! I loved the blurb which peaked my interest in reading this book! It sounds so interesting. A business proposal leaves the two of them committed to a year of marriage caught my attention because she was so introverted to begin with.
Britney Vasquez says
The bull riding definitely caught my eye, as well as when Chase realizes the wedding is real. Hehe! Can’t wait to read it! It sounds great! 🙂 Glad you are here Shanna!
Terressa T says
Ah! So good. It all captures my interest. Shy girl + Cowboy + Modern day marriage of convenience = my kind of story!!!

Hi! I should admit that I’m a sucker for Christmas stories, and reading that “A business proposal leaves the two of them committed to a year of marriage” , foretells a funny and sparkling book. Surely, a good reason to start reading Shanna Hatfield’s books! Thanks for this chance! 🙂
Patty Duplechin says
I love a marriage of convenience
Anna Loomis Russell says
Bull rider for me!
Renate says
Always amazed at NOT only the creativity of the authors, but their generosity. Enjoying the Return to Christmas Falls series with the Tennessee setting. Tennessee, Nashville, and the Smoky Mountains is a favorite vacation spot. Actually wrote a poem about the commercialism of Pigeon Forge! While I have only read book 1in the series and am partway thru book 2, I can’t wait to read book 5 Forever Yours in Christmas Falls with Morgan & Dallas. Delightful premise for Chasing Christmas – a bride + a bull rider +Las Vegas + a wedding = a whimsical romance. Thanks,
Julie Carpenter says
Do you get a lot of your inspiration for cowboy/bull rider characters from where you live and the Roundup? I loved your pictures from it this year. I actually live just over the pass from you and have never been to Roundup but think every year I want to come and enjoy all the festivities! Maybe this next year I’ll bring my family and we’ll enjoy!
Tasha says
Chasing Christmas sounds adorable. The meddling friend/cousin is a scheming thing, isn’t she? Lol. This is now on my to-read list! Thanks for sharing!

book I will be getting..and a bull rider omg 😮 who does want a bull rider and a shy girl together can’t
Wait to read…
Alma Conchas Sanchez says
I think the part that intrigued me the most was when it said “A business proposal leaves the two of them committed to a year of marriage. How hard could it be to remain wed in name only?” I would like to find out what happens with this couple especially knowing they are being forced to stay married when they never wanted to be married!
Kim Trask says
This sounds awesome! First of all, you had me at the name Chase. Second, I love these kind of stories and I can just imagine them falling in love! Can’t wait to read this!
April Kirkland says
The fact that he’s a bull rider catches my eye right away. I’ve never read a romance with a bull roder in it but now I think I need to! Also I always love stories with a marriage in name only theme. Thanks for the chance.
Mary irvine says
Wow!! This sounds amazing!!! Love bull riders, love the name chase! That name sounds like a bull ruder! Love love Christmas romances, its the perfect time of year! With the holidays , this blurb really peaked my interest, I very much would love to read this!!! Thank you for the chance!
Bonnie Gray says
Really like books with rodeo characters in them. Sounds like a good book.
Doni says
A business proposal leaves them committed for a year of marriage.
Virgie Lane says
Thanks for the chance to win a gift card. I love Christmas romances would love to see how this turned out.
Deanna Stevens says
A wedding in Los Vegas!! We saw our son married there 🙂
Gail says
How hard can it be to remain married in name only for a year? Oh, something tells me it will be impossible! LOL
Donna Dv says
A business proposal that turns into marriage, interesting. 🙂
Chanel Monroe says
The introductory tag line leading into to the book blurb is cute and intriguing. I love the married-in-name but falling-in-love romances. Not to mention, I’m sensing it’s an opposites attract romance, too… Anyways, I can’t wait to read this story. It sounds cute.
Leslie Lawrence says
I am just going to say that is is probably very hard to stay married in name only. Especially, when he is hunky and she is beautiful.
Shannon H says
I’m excited for the great romance that I know it will contain! And I want to see how Jessie deals with suddenly being in the public eye.
Gina says
I love this spin on matchmaking to the extreme.
Kelly Nelson says
As a horse riding fanatic and a rodeo fan, Chasing Christmas sounds like my kind of book! Love the premise and the hero sounds absolutely dreamy!
