Joe Lee Anderson just received his veterinarian license and is eager to open up his own equine clinic. He already has a five-year plan mapped out. That is, until his mother, Zoë Anderson, interrupts that plan when she tells him Jake Garrison, the father he never knew, is ill and possibly dying. He is further shaken when his mother tells him she not only wants to go to Oklahoma to see his father but also wants him to go with her. Much to their surprise, when they arrive in Oklahoma, they find Jake is very wealthy and has another son, JW, and when Joe Lee meets his brother for the first time, he realizes they have more in common than just the same father. After an emotional reunion, Jake and Zoe rekindle their romance, and the brothers face their own issues regarding their reunion. Sadly, when tragedy strikes, the brothers are forced to learn quickly how to work together for the sake of family, and through this tragedy, they learn to love and trust one another. A Cowboy's Heart knows real love is not in the carnal desires of the flesh but the eternal, unconditional love of Jesus Christ.

Communication and Aging

By: Jon F. Nussbaum,Loretta L. Pecchioni,James D. Robinson,Teresa L. Thompson

This text employs a communication perspective to examine the aging process and the ability of individuals to adapt successfully to aging. It continues the groundbreaking work of the first edition, emphasizing a life-span approach toward understanding the social interaction that occurs during later life. The edition provides a comprehensive update on the existing and emerging research within communication and aging studies and considers such topics as notions of successful aging, positive and negative stereotypes toward older adults, and health communication issues. It raises awareness of the barriers facing elderly people in conversation and the importance such conversations have in elderly people's lives. The impact of nonrelational processes, such as hearing loss, are considered as they impact relationships with others and affect the ability to age successfully. The book is organized into 14 chapters. Each chapter is written so that the reader is presented with an exhaustive review of the pertinent and recent literature from the social sciences. As in the first edition, when the literature is empirically based, the communicative ramifications are then discussed. Readers of this volume will gain greater understanding of the importance of their communicative relationships and how significant they remain across the life span. Developed for students in communication, psychology, nursing, social gerontology, sociology, and related areas, Communication and Aging provides important insights on communication to all who are affected by the aging process.
