Heart Of A Cowboy (19 page)

Dear Reader,

I had so much fun creating the story of Jordan and Zachary, high school sweethearts who parted and were forced to be together again because of their child. This is a book about forgiveness and trust, which are so important in a relationship. Both Jordan and Zachary had to deal with both of these issues.

Also in
Heart of a Cowboy,
Nicholas didn't flourish in school although he was very smart. He stifled his intelligence because the other children made fun of him. This is a reason some parents homeschool their children. In each book in the series I want to try to show a different situation that leads to parents deciding to homeschool.

I love hearing from readers. You can contact me at [email protected] or at P.O. Box 2074 Tulsa, OK 74101. You can also learn more about my books at www.margaretdaley.com. I have a quarterly newsletter that you can sign up for on my Web site or you can enter my monthly drawings by signing my guest book.

 

Best wishes,

QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION
  1. Zachary couldn't forgive Jordan for not telling him about his son. His past ruled his life. Do you have something that has happened in your past that has done that to you? How can you get past that?
  2. Who was your favorite character? Why?
  3. Why is it important to forgive others and ourselves? What happens when we live in the past rather than look forward to the future? Which do you focus on—past, present or future? Why?
  4. Jordan was afraid of losing her son to the point she was overprotective. Have you ever done that? How did you handle it?
  5. What was your favorite scene? Why?
  6. Jordan knew she'd made a mistake concerning Zachary and Nicholas and regretted it. Have you ever made the kind of mistake you felt that you paid for more than most? How did you deal with it?
  7. Jordan thought if she could control her life then she would be all right. She didn't realize there are a lot of things we can't control in our lives. What are some things that have happened to you lately that have been out of your control? How did you deal with them?
  8. Nicholas was very smart and learned quickly, but he
    hated to write and avoided it as much as possible. Have you ever avoided something you couldn't do well? What happened when you had to do it?
  9. Zachary loved taking risks like bull riding in a rodeo. Do you take risks? Why or why not?
  10. Although Zachary knew he should forgive Jordan, that God wanted him to, he couldn't. Have you ever done something you knew you shouldn't? How did the situation turn out by avoiding what you knew you should do?
  11. Granny was Jordan's mentor. Jordan turned to Granny for advice. Do you have a mentor? Who is it and why is that person your mentor?
  12. Jordan kept a secret for more than ten years. Secrets often have a way of coming out. When she came back home, she had to face the secret she'd kept. When it came out, she had to face the consequences. Has that happened to you? What did you do?
  13. Jordan's mom was treating Granny as if she were a child rather than her mother. How do you treat your parents? Do health issues affect your interaction with your parents?
  14. Nicholas wrote an essay about the disappearing cowboy—an ideal from our past. Do you agree with him? Why or why not?
  15. Both Jordan and Zachary wondered what would have happened if Zachary's mother had passed on the
    messages from Jordan. Do you ever wonder if something would have happened differently in your past, where you would be today? Is it good to wonder what ifs in our lives? Why or why not?
