257 pages ; 21 cm

Those deep brimmed Stetsons. Those faded jeans. And that's just the beginning. Cowboys are everything a fantasy man should be--tall, tough, and oh so handsome. In this sexy new collection of original stories, meet three men of the American West who know more than a thing or two about roping a girl's heart. 1. The Reluctant Hero by Lorraine Heath Sheriff Matthew Knight is the perfect hero for Andrea Jackson's next dime novel--or so she thinks. His outlaw busting exploits may be larger than life, but the man behind the badge is more complicated than she bargained for. What's a writer to do when she needs a story and her scowling subject is reluctant to open up? Maybe the question should be what won't she do? 2. The Great Cowboy Race by Georgina Gentry Boston bred heiress Henrietta never imagined she would race a horse one thousand miles across open land disguised as a boy. But then, she never believed her parents would arrange a marriage for her she would have to run away to escape. However, there's no escape from her toughest competition, expert rider and champion wrangler Comanche Jones. She needs that prize money--almost as much as she finds herself wanting him. 3. Whispering by Moonlight by Teresa Bodwell Stranded in a town called Hell Gate without a penny to her name, Isabelle Milton is relieved that circumstances haven't forced her into something truly desperate--not yet, anyway. She's run out of options when gorgeous Lucas Warring rides into town like the answer to a prayer. Willing to do anything if he takes her in, she finds herself hired on as a ranch hand during one of the coldest winters ever--and delighted to discover there are plenty of ways they can keep each other warm. The West has never been wilder...
