Book Description

Hate cold as the winter snow.

When her parents died without a cent, innocent Tara Montgomery had no choice but to head for Fort Lyon to reunite with her soldier brother. The independent miss never dreamed of the journey's perils---and the worst was her suntanned, buckskin-clad wagonmaster Zach Windwalker. His disdain of women traveling alone infuriated her; his grisly stories of Western life annoyed her. But Zach's masterful lips upon her sensitive flesh drove her to distraction. Even as Tara swore to despise him forever, the passionate pioneer was guiding his hands to her buttons, her chemise...and to the wildly beating heart beneath!

Half-breed frontiersman Zach Windwalker didn't need a tempting morsel like Tara Montgomery in his life---not when he was on the verge of trapping the gunrunners who were supplying the Cheyenne. The virile tracker planned to almost seduce the untouched beauty to scare her back to Washington, D. C. But at the moment the strong-willed male should have pushed her away, he pulled Tara even closer. With only the vast plains and distant hills as witness, Zach was as singleminded as the invincible American eagle as he swooped down with unwavering passion upon his unresisting, gentle AUTUMN DOVE.
