Hi Readers,
Woo Hoo! The big day has arrived! At least the big day for me to join Secret Cravings publishing and the SCP authors to celebrate their first year anniversary with this huge Blog-Hop that started Dec. 16, 2011 and runs through Jan. 17, 2012. So mark these dates and the authors on your calendar and get ready for some fun and great prizes!
Each participating author will have their own give-away, so be sure and scope out all these wonderful authors. I realize I don't have all the author's links, but you should be able to get them as you go to other sites.
Now, before I take one more more step and tell you what my contest is all about, I want to take a moment to thank fellow author, Ginger Simpson, a lovely lady who writes the fabulous blog, 'Dishin It Out' for so graciously allowing me to 'steal' an idea from one of her postings. If she hadn't blogged about the 'Soiled Doves of the West, I would never have come up with this fun question today. If you want to read more about Ginger's article, please visit her blog site at http://cowboykisses.blogspot.com/ Trust me, it's well worth the read.
Now, that said, how many of you out there love the western romance, the hot cowboys, the spicy love scenes? I know I'm a big fan of all three. How many of you ever watched the TV series, Gunsmoke, and wondered if there was more going on with Miss Kitty and Marshall Dillon than met the eye? Now I'm not talking about the actors, but the characters they played...lol. My question today for you to leave a comment about and for a chance to win a signed copy of Witch's Fire and some other special goodies I have in mind...Tell me, what do you think?...Did she or didn't she? Did Miss Kitty "do" Marshal Dillion? Do you think she ever took him up that staircase at The Long Branch and spent a hot night in the big guy's arms?...My answer?...Most definitely, and more than once!...lol.....Now what do you say? I can't wait to read your thoughts on the subject....Tabs/Jaydyn

wow happy anniversary and then great authors have great time for the holiday
desi the blonde@ msn.com
I'm with you. Of course Miz Kitty did the marshall. The characters and show ran for over 20 years so I don't think the two could not have had a little fun. lol.
Nice post.
Hi Desi,
Thanks for dropping by. I agree, there are some great authors listed here.
Hi Lorrie,
lol...I knew you'd agree...Yep, I'm sure they had lots of fun.
She had to, they didn't have batteries back then! ;-)

I've wondered in the past about Miss Kitty and Marshall Dillon also. My guess would be the same as yours.
Thanks for the contest.

Hi Anne,
ROF...Good one, and ur right, they didn't have batteries back then. Reckon what they did have?? Thanks for dropping by....Tabs
Hi MCV
Thanks for dropping by...good guess...lol....Tabs
Happy Anniversary. I'm going to take the opposite position and say, no, they didn't go all the way. There would have been some very hot moments, but I don't think the character of Matt Dillon would have allowed himself to cross right over. I think there was something too strong and independent in Miss Kitty for the Marshall to handle...he would want to, but was just a tad afraid to give completely over
At the time that Gunsmoke was on, I was too young to know what a soiled dove was, but looking back now, I'm sure that Miss Kitty & the Marshall made more than one trip up those stairs, when the cameras weren't looking.

I've been reading a lot of Western romances lately and I am really enjoying them. I like the strong heroines and the adventures.

Never saw Gunsmoke but would like to think they did go upstairs.

Hi Chris,
Glad u stopped by and TY for anniversary wishes. I like ur view of Matt and Kitty. They were both very strong characters, however I have to think they also needed down time, and I don't mean that literally, although it's a good idea...lol...Tabs
Hi Kathryn,
So glad u dropped by. Yeah, I like to think that when the town was still and quiet, they took advantage, and made a few, mad dashes up those stairs when opportunity presented itself, otherwise, it would have been a very lonely life for both of them....Tabs
Hi NA,
Thanks for paying me a visit. I love western romances too, in fact, it' my favorite genre. happy Trails to you...Tabs
Hey Lindseye,
Thanks for coming by and leaving a comment. Yeah, I'd like to think they had some wonderful moments together...Tabs
Congrats goes out to MCV...she's the winner of the drawing...Thanks to everyone for stopping by and playing the contest and helping to celebrate SCP's anniversay!....Hugs...Tabs
Happy Anniversary to Secret Cravings Publishing!
Miss Kitty most definitely took Marshall Dillon upstairs...and I'm guessing it was probably pretty often too! I loved watching that show and always wondered when the Marshall was going to finally ask Miss Kitty to either dance or get married...lol

Happy anniversary to Secret Cravings. I never watched Gunsmoke so I don't know for sure but I would guess she did, lol.
Happy holidays!

What a great question! I think I agree with you, I think Miss Kitty 'did' the Marshall more than we'd probably like to know. There was always such a twinkle in their eyes. ;)
Happy Holidays to all !!

Oh, Miz Kitty & the Marshall were definitely having some off-camera fun!
Happy Holidays & thanks for the giveaway!
elizabeth@bookattict.com
I'm thinking they did take those stairs every now and again *winks*
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to SCP!

Hey Tabitha!!
I love your books!! I lost touch with most of the groups I used to be in.. Life just kind od took over but I hope to be around more and to catch up on the great books by authors I love.. Like you of course!!
So I've never seen the show.. but I have to say if I was there and Miss Kitty didn't do some one named Marshall Dilon.. Then I sure would have ;-)
Thanks for the contest!

I can't say I watched Gunsmoke, but I do know who the characters are and I think I can see that happening. I actually was more of a Bonanza watcher, that Little Joe was a looker!

Thank you to everyone who dropped by and left a comment. Your names have been sent on to Dawne for the big drawing....Good luck everyone....Tabs
Happy Anniversary to Secret Cravings. I"m with you. I think they made many trips up those stairs.

Happy Anniversary,
I was just a kid when Gun Smoke was on but even I thought the Marshall and Ms. Kitty were boyfriend & girlfriend.
As and adult, I would say most definitely the Marshal was tapping Ms. Kitty. Happy New Year, and I wish you many blessings and much success in 2012.

Happy Anniversary Secret Publishing. My guess about Miss Kitty and Marshall Dillon would be the same as yours.
e.balinski(at)att(dot)net
Oh, wow...I LOVED watching Gunsmoke when I was a kid...kinda ruins memories if I have to think if there was something going on between them...LOL! Now my hubby says NO WAY...the marshall was a standup guy!
books4me67 at ymail dot com
Happy Anniversary...Yep, I do think Ms. Kitty and Matt Dillon got it on...often....Have a blessed day.
I love blog hops! I'm looking forward to visiting all the authors and reading about their books.
