There is nothing like spending time in the beautiful Colorado Rockies, where beautiful scenery, cowboys, and romance are sure to find you. Once I discovered my passion for writing contemporary romances filled with messages of hope and second chances, I never looked back. After a long time career as an attorney, I gave it up to embark on writing full time. I love my stories set high in the Colorado Mountains and the handsome cowboys my heroines find there. Although my characters and settings are fictional, they are based on the people and places I’ve experienced in my own time in the mountains. I currently reside on Colorado’s front range. My first series, Peakview, has eleven books. My second series, Aspen Ridge, contains nine. If you love Peakview County, you’ll also love my new series, Peaktop Dude Ranch, coming in 2021. Don’t worry, your favorite characters from the first two series will be popping in from time to time. I also write stories for the popular Chicken Soup for the Soul books, where you can catch a glimpse of my real life. I’d love to hear from you. Jill

I nominated you for a Liebster Award! You may not know what it is (I didn’t know either before I was nominated!), so you can check out my link about it if you want. I’ll post it here. Thanks for being an awesome fellow blogger! http://missyspublicjunk.wordpress.com/2013/09/20/liebster-award/
Jill, I really enjoyed your story about Smokey, that’s one determined and strong cat! I’m also one of the contributing authors, my story is called “My Boyfriend Bob” and it’s on page 291. I really enjoyed reading everyone’s stories, what a great collection! Have a wonderful holiday season!
Found you through RWA’s Writing 101 class – love those purple cowgirl boots! 🙂
Hello Ms. Haymaker,
I just read your inspiring story in Chicken Soup for Soul. So proud of you! I felt I had to write you:)
I just finished reading Colorado Sunset & absolutely loved it. I want to try & read the rest but I will do so as i have the extra money. Thank you so much for writing this lovely book.
