Guiding Gretchen
Chance Spencer has returned to Grover Town for one thing; to honor his father’s life. He only sees one way to accomplish that—by buying a ranch, and making it the biggest and most productive one, so he can put his uppity childhood rival in his place. What he doesn’t plan on is stumbling across a poacher on his new land, and a redheaded, beautiful one, to boot. And seeing such an innocent girl out on her own stirs up a protective gene he never knew was lodged in his soul. Gretchen Nelson ran away from her abusive father, only to find herself being dragged to the altar by another. Now she’s saddled with an overbearing rancher with a penchant for putting his hands on her ass, and teaching her about dark things in the bedroom she never could have conceived of—but which she comes to crave. Soon both their pasts catch up with them and threaten to tear down the fabric of the life they’ve built together. The bond between them will be tried and tested, but will it be enough to hold them together?

Handling Holly
Clive Samuels’s childhood friend has returned to town and turned things upside down. Now Clive finds himself the foreman on a rising and profitable ranch. Watching the owner and his wife’s relationship blossom, Clive yearns for someone to care for. He doesn’t have to look far with the preacher’s daughter hanging around the ranch and looking ripe for ropin’. Holly Morgan can’t keep her eyes off the tall and sexy foreman. All her life, her papa has drilled into her mind all the things that good girls don’t do, but Clive stirs all the secret places inside that urge her to be oh so bad. Caught in a wicked position that could compromise her father’s good name, Holly has a distasteful wedding looming before her. Clive knows he is the worst person for Holly. No one with the wicked desires he has should have someone so pure, but when he discovers she’s set to marry another, he steps up. Soon, he shows her that the small taste of passion he’s given her doesn’t compare to what he wants to give her. His new bride takes to pleasure like a duck to water, but other wifely duties are going to take her more than a few trips over his knee to sink in.
