Reasons For Reading Contemporary Cowboy Romance Novels

By Beryl Dalton


People across the world will usually become fans of a good story that unfolds a steady pace. There is sometimes tension, excitement and drama that accompanies the situation that is described in a book and this adds to the enjoyment associated with reading it. Bibliophiles are often kept guessing until the climax in the last few pages due to conflict between the characters. Contemporary cowboy romance novels are good at delivering all of this.

In essence, whether this type of story possesses erotic elements or not, it must engage the reader with attraction between the hero and heroine. Stories that are written without a trace of any reason why the two characters would even look at one another do not usually get much of a readership. If you delve into one of these stories, you can expect to see attraction build on a mental and emotional level.

When it comes to the elements that make a love story successful, the importance of a sexy male lead cannot be underestimated. Successful authors know this and they usually aim to put together a description of the hero that brings out the best of his physical and inner qualities. They are usually rugged individuals who can handle the challenges that are presented by their environment.

Most people who are fans of the genre enjoy reading vivid descriptions of the landscape. This is one reason why they look for and buy books in this area. They like the virtual trip that they can take through words, seeing wide open meadows, bubbling creeks and noisy stables before them in their minds as they read.

Descriptions of Western life engage readers as well. Some people who buy these books live in locations that are completely different from those they read about and the habits of people in their community are quite varied. They may ride motorbikes instead of horses and grow herbs instead of food for cattle. Jogging may be their favorite physical activity, yet they long to read of other outdoor activities.

While contemporary romances, like older books with a similar geographical location, are expected to take place in the West, there is a major difference. The male and female characters undergo challenges that are more similar to those that he average reader nowadays faces. That makes it easier to relate to them.

In addition to the usual drama, tough leather boots and men in tight jeans that are expected in these stories, there are several elements that allow readers to separate them into other categories. For example, there are several that have Christian or other religious themes. In these, the characters grow in qualities like faithfulness even as they explore their love for each other.

While cowboys are typically associated with Texas and a pleasant accent, if that is what you like, there are stories that are set in other places in the United States. For example, it is not uncommon to find Montana or Colorado being used as settings in these stories. You will also find that there are several that appeal to fans who like a Canadian setting and feature cowboys from Canada.
