Book three in the Desert Heat seriesKate has a bad reputation. Since her pa's murder, she's been a whip-wielding, ball-busting hellcat, determined to prove she can run a ranch just as well as any man. Then her little sister goes and hires a new foreman—a foreman who makes Kate tingle in places she shouldn't be tingling, not if she wants to keep up a tough façade. When Jake takes liberties by kissing her—never mind where he kisses her—she clocks him in the chin then hopes he'll kiss her some more. What's happening to her?Jake isn't just at the ranch to help run the place. He made a bet he could tame Kate, a bet that would give him the money he needs for his own piece of land. He never expected her to be so ornery...or taste so sweet. And he never expected to like her more when she's cantankerous. Unfortunately, it's a bet he can't afford to lose, even though he's already lost his heart.Inside Scoop: This historical romp is a sexy Western take on The Taming of the Shrew.A Romantica® Western erotic romance from Ellora's Cave
