HE WAS A LOWDOWN DRIFTER Feisty Abigail Graham had no idea she'd come upon a douldecrossed bandit when she found bullet-ridden Chase Cordell beside the road. All the sweet and tender brunette saw was a hurt and bleeding human being who would die without her care. But as Abby nursed Chase back to health, he became the focus of her busy days...and her lonely nights. Even though he was stubborn and ill-tempered, secretive and rude, the young and pretty miss was sure that the right kind of love would make him want to stay with her forever. SHE WAS A PRISSY SCHOOLMARM Weakened by his injuries, hard-muscled, hard-living, and hard-hearted Chase Cordell hated every minute he was stuck in bed with that well-meaning teacher fussing over him. Her outlook was so cheerful, her touch so kind, her scent so provocative. Chase had to hightail it out of the dusty Colorado town before someone recognized him from a wanted poster. But the closer he got to bolting, the more he couldn't think of leaving without sharing his passion with his shapely nurse and showing her the breathless, boundless scope of his desire.

IN THIS GAME OF CHANCE, SHE RISKED EVERYTHING FOR LOVE — At a tender age, young Alexis Ashmore was torn from her lush Virginia plantation home to live in the untamed new territory of Idaho, where her father sought his fortune. — It was there that her first passionate embrace with ruggedly handsome Colter Stephens told her that she would never be able to love another. Yet through an odd turn of events, Alexis became the wealthiest woman in the county, making her prey to a man whose lust for power drove him to make her his own. The impropriety of his charm and deceit made her desire Colter all the more. But the gamble she was forced to take to win him back might lose his love forever...
