    He fought on the streets as a kid, he fought in business as a man, he fought in the ring as a world champion. As his gift graduated, so did his way of thinking. His fighting never stopped, just his methods. Twenty odd years later and he’s found himself fighting for something entirely different - the heart of a woman he’s wanted from the first moment he heard her voice. The second opportunity knocks, he takes a leap composed from faith and bravado, succeeding. Perhaps a little too much. Now he’s thinking up lullabies and trying to determine how to convince radio star Samara Blackwell that he wants her for more than just the life they've created resting on the inside of her ever growing belly. Is this one battle where he’ll have to call a draw? If the behavior of his obstinate little media queen is any indication than it just might be. But he’d never backed down from stepping in the ring with anyone. And he’s not about to start now.

    Quitting her job and buying a farm after spending only one week at a nearby dude ranch was something the responsible IRS agent would never do in a million years. But what they didn’t understand was that Mimi needed to breathe and for the first time in her life she knew how to make that happen. What Mimi hadn’t counted on was Gabriel, the handsome, though very odd caretaker of her new farm. Gabriel was a bruised and broken man…haunted by the things he’d seen and the awful things he’d done. He didn’t believe anyone could love him the way he was now. When Mimi arrived he began to believe there might be a chance for redemption and maybe even love again. Excerpt: As Mimi lined up the site on the gun and took aim at the target, a large, weathered hand reached out and wound around hers, helping her hold the barrel steady in its warm grip. A second hand covered hers as her finger shook nervously above the trigger. Hot breath slid across her cheek as Gabriel’s face hovered beside hers, steadying her as she aimed. Mimi fought the urge to melt into his warm arms, painfully aware that this was the closest she’d been to a man—any man, let alone one as built and good-looking as Gabriel—in a long time. Failed love was the first thing on the list of what had been wrong with her life back home, so much so that she knew coming out here and living like a hermit would at least mean she couldn’t get her heart broken again. “Don’t close your eyes,” Gabriel said softly in the sexiest, huskiest whisper Mimi had ever heard. She couldn’t see them from this angle, but she could imagine his green eyes staring straight ahead, willing the gun where he wanted it to go. “Look at the target, line up the site. Let out your breath, and squeeze the trigger.” Mimi followed his suggestions as well as she could, finding it hard to concentrate on anything other than the feeling of him standing so close to her. She fired, and was amazed to see that the shot at least hit the target, if not exactly in the middle. She turned to thank him, but looked and Gabriel was nowhere to be found.
