Pursued by a loan shark bent on retrieving gambling debts owed by her deadbeat ex-boyfriend, she finds the perfect hiding place at the remote Circle W Ranch in central Oregon. More at home with city life, cupcakes, and croissants than beef, beans, and bacon, she has to convince the ranch owner she’s up to the job of feeding his cowhands. Micah West’s ranch cook quit without notice. With his crew of hungry cowboys about to mutiny, he hires Cary on a temporary basis, just until he finds the right man to fill the job. But, maintaining a hands-off policy toward his sexy new cook becomes tougher than managing a herd of wild-eyed Herefords. Sweet Cowboy Kisses Kade Vaughn’s goal is to ride Swamp Fox. The rank bull has bucked him off twice and given him a severe concussion to boot. On a forced vacation at his friend’s ranch, he comes face to face with a temptress in a Cleopatra wig working in the local diner. She’s the girl he left behind, and who he’d give nearly anything to have back in his arms. To get through each day, Pansy Lark pretends to be famous, strong women who took what they wanted from life. Once a champion barrel racer with a bright future, and a cowboy she loved, she’s lost it all. When Kade walks back into her life, she must decide if real strength is in forgiveness.
