Honey and the Hired Hand



A TASTE OF HONEY

When a mysterious drifter appeared at Honey Farrell's ranch, willing to work for room and board, the wary widow had to hire him. Tall, dark and grouchy, Jesse Whitelaw could scare away the lurking cattle rustlers with one growl. And Honey's sons could sure use a man around. Still, there was something mighty suspicious about the cowboy....

Jesse hated lying about who he really was, yet he had to keep his cover--and the Farrells--safe. But who knew that somewhere between fixing fences and secret meetings, he'd teach a teenage boy how to be a man ... or that with one wet kiss he'd remind a brokenhearted woman what it meant to love again? Or that, when the truth came out, he'd lose everything?

The Cowboy and the Princess



COWBOY CRAZY

Faron Whitelaw had some nerve calling Belinda Prescott a princess. A nearly bankrupt ranch was hardly a castle, and Faron, an ill-tempered cowboy who'd inherited half her kingdom, was certainly no prince. The man was lucky she didn't make him sleep in the barn!

Faron had been spitting mad when Belinda had to inform him, because of his inheritance, about the truth of his parentage. Suddenly, he wasn't one of the Whitelaws of Texas, and he was taking his anger out on Belinda. He wanted to believe she was nothing more than a gold digger, but all she seemed to want was him ...and that was the one thing he couldn't give her.

The Wrangler and the Rich Girl




A DEBUTANTE IN A HAYSTACK

Was she crazy? Garth Whitelaw didn't have time to hold Candy Baylor's hand and drag her around his ranch, and why on earth would the rich Texas debutante want to train horses, anyway? But she sure looked sexy in tight, worn jeans and with hay in her hair, so maybe it wasn't such a bad deal, after all....

Candy had no idea why Garth was suddenly so agreeable, but she wasn't about to look a gift horse in the mouth. Besides, her instructors in school had never been so ruggedly handsome as this wrangler... and she wouldn't mind engaging in some horseplay!

The Unforgiving Bride





"NO WAY I'M EVER GETTING MARRIED!"

This was rancher Falcon Whitelaw's favorite phrase. Until he heard himself say, "I do" to widowed mother Mara Ainsworth—a woman who hated his guts and was marrying him only for his medical insurance! No more women, no more sex, no more nothing!

But one look into her sick little daughter's eyes reminded Falcon of who was really suffering. And for the first time in his life, he found himself praying—for a woman's love and a child's life....
