Book Excerpt:

Her eyes brought him a step closer to her. “Like you breaking down in Arizona and me running over you? You think there’s some reason for that?”

“Yes.”

“Then why don’t you fill me in, Sassy?” His voice dropped to a low sexy growl that sent a shiver racing through her.

“You can call me Ana.” She slid closer, so close that she could feel the wave of heat coming off his body.

“Does that mean we’re friends now?” He moved in, placing one hand on her bare hip to pull her against him.

“No.” She traced one hand up from his chest to his neck then on up to push his hat off his head and rake her fingers through his thick hair. “But we will be.”

What others are saying:

“These four books kept me reading for almost two days straight. I only put them down when I got to tired to read and found myself waking up a few hours later to continue. The passion and love and the intrigue just don’t quit.” – An Amazon Reviewer

Four ranchers as hot as the Arizona desert – men more than willing for a night of loving, but who all think that love is not in their cards. Four men, four stories.

Chase’n’Ana: Chase Hawks had a good handle on life. Then fate intervened. He ran over a woman. Literally. Hit her with his truck. So, what what happens when a down-to-earth rancher hooks up with a quirky new age witch who likes to dance naked under the moon?

Molding Clay: Clay Russell had plans, big plans. But his family had other plans. They roped him into taking on the job of getting a struggling ranch back on its feet. He didn’t expect it to be something beyond his ability. He also didn’t expect Rusty Blackhawk to be a woman. Or a witch.

Scout’n’Cole: Cole had no trouble attracting women. He just wasn’t expecting to find love. Then he’s teamed up with Scout Windrider and everything changes. Faced with a murderous madman, Scout and Cole take a leap and discover something relegated to myth and legend is not only true, but will change them forever.

Conn’n’Caleb: Single and loving it! That’s Caleb. Life’s good — although a little predictable. Until a woman drops out of the sky and into his kayak, nearly drowning him in the process. But getting wet is the least of his problems because Conn isn’t like any woman he’s ever known.

The Double Shot. (for Louis L’Amour)

The man came into the border town at dawn.  He sat tall in his saddle, and he was a tall man.  A handful of inches over six feet, but slim and wiry.  He was some dirty, and a week’s worth of stubble smudged his rawboned face.  Behind him, the desert heat was building and the red sun was rising like a phoenix.  It had been a hard ride, but Thane Johnson was a man used to hardship.

He sprang from the saddle and threw his reins over the strangest looking hitching post he had ever seen.  Looking up and down the quiet street, he realized that it wasn’t just the hitching post.  This was the strangest town he had ever seen.  And he had seen many.
