SHE NEVER KNEW LOVE -- UNTIL HIM
Raised in a gilded cage, she was the chubby twin sister no one noticed. Now her weight loss made Marissa Pierce the kind of woman every man desired - including Robert Martinez. If only she had the courage to return his seductive gaze...
A proud Native American, Robert resented Marissa's privileged lifestyle. Yet this elegant stranger understood his wounded heart. Now Robert was determined to show her how truly beautiful she was - before the princess could escape to her ivory tower forever.
THE LAST ROUNDUP: Red Creek, Colorado's matchmaking matriarch rounds up two bachelors for the Pierce twins!
