Book Description
SHELTER FROM THE STORM…
A blizzard blows Texas Ranger Jake McCain to Rachel Hudson's cabin and trouble is right behind him. He's badly wounded. Taking care of him is the right thing to do, but she knows the local gossips won't see it that way. Suddenly, everything Rachel's fought for is at stake—and the past she’d hoped to escape looms over her future. Still, when Jake turns his dark gaze on her, all she wants is his strong, seductive touch…
A WOMAN TO CALL HIS OWN...
Jake McCain has never stayed in one place. A home and a family aren’t for the likes of a man accustomed to the rough life of the trail. But when he sees the trouble she’s in, he can't leave her behind. Not when her innocent kisses burn straight into his soul, and the sight of her smile is the only bounty he cares to collect…
