eBook Self Published Published: March 28, 2013 Amazon ASIN: B00C3PAHXK Kalida Ryland can never remember a time she hasn’t despised her neighbor, Deuce Cavender. He ’s a man who always gets what he wants, and he wants her — and, even more, he wants the prime Ryland rangeland that will be hers someday. And her feckless father has already given his blessing in exchange for being invited to join Cavender’s cattle syndicate when the deal is done. He’ll allow nothing to prevent it, not even Kalida’s fervent promise that she will save them somehow. Deuce Cavender has been half in love with Kalida since she was fifteen. Now she’s a woman who hates him with the ferocity of a mountain lion — and a woman who could love with equal ferocity if only she’d let herself. But she believes he and his cattle syndicate are only out dominate all of southern Montana — and her. The Ryland ranch is the last impediment his ambition, and Deuce’s price is non-negotiable: Kalida will be his wife. Even as she swears she will never ever marry him, she’s caught in a web of betrayal which can only lead right into Deuce’s arms — and his bed.

Wary, suspicious, tight, closed up Lizzie who was looking for any way to escape the drudgery of being the sheriff’s object of pity. Never mind her fascination with Galt and the inexorable tension between them. He’s determined she’s coming with him.

Until the first kiss, the first caress, the first blaze of passion that threatens to consume them and throw all his plans to hell and back.

Now Rosalind is to be married to the rangy, obdurate, plain-spoken Sam Garrison, a copper baron from Montana, and the last thing Rosalind wants is Julianne at the wedding. But family will talk — so she’s vastly relieved when Julianne proves to be mannerly, and presentable, even beautiful, in her dowdy clothes. There is even something about her that pricks Sam Garrison’s interest as well — to the point where, when Rosalind balks at walking down the aisle, and Sam swears he’ll marry any of the wedding guests who will have him — Julianne steps in and accepts the offer.
And now Sam, who didn’t expect anyone to take him up on it, now must cope with the furious father of the bride who won’t hesitate to kill him; a lucrative business deal gone sour, a jilted bride seeking vengeance, and a beautiful burden who could easily tempt him beyond all restraint and become his Montana mistress for real.

She is confused about what she wants and with whom. But she has a newspaper to run. And a cause to fight. She has no time for men, even less time for romance. And besides, her short-lived marriage to her husband Frank taught her that men don’t like independent women and that love is fleeting, love can’t be trusted, love doesn’t last.
Until Logan begins his sensual assault. He’s waited far too long, and he’s determined to have Maggie this time. But forces are at work to narrow her choices and hem her in: a trusted colleague is shot; her business is torched; her valuable range land is set on fire, things Logan can’t protect her from. Things so insidious, she almost doesn’t dare to try to root out the truth.

Rake is no woman’s knight errant, but he knows trouble when he sees it. And he knows he’s only letting himself in for more trouble when he rescues her. It means their being together in close quarters until she’s ready to tell him the truth.
With every minute, he questions that she’s even a nun — her eyes are too desperate, she’s too beautiful and she hasn’t once uttered a prayer.. Give her one thing: disguising herself as a nun is a sure way to keep a man at a far distance. But not here, not with him, not with that sharp tongue, unbelievable story, and lovely face. He promises himself he’ll only keep her until he gets to the truth, but even if she confesses everything, can he really let her go?
