Kara O'Riley has no choice but to travel as far west as her meager funds will take her. And when she is hired as a bookkeeper for a sprawling Texas ranch, she quickly decides that her new employer, Jonathan Catlin, is the coldest, strangest man she's ever known. He tells her he has exactly one year to make the ranch a success - - but she has a feeling there's an awful lot more he's not telling her. For one thing, there's something odd about the Catlin Ranch. For another, she has glimpsed a hint of tenderness in Jonathan's gorgeous, haunted eyes - - and suddenly her lonely, aching heart is filled with fire . . . .

Charming characters, lively dialogue, and smooth narrative combine against a vivid Texas backdrop and
create a warm, tender love story The hard, almost bitter Jonathan shows every sign of not caving in to
his heart's desires, leaving the reader waiting for him to make the first move. Kara's headstrong Irish

spent an afternoon drifting away in Texas during the late 1800's.
