Three hot western novellas RODEO RIDERS:Cougar Lighthorse isn't just a bull rider. The Native American also owns several dangerous rodeo Brahmas. Although he's always been comfortable around the great beasts, he would understand if Jordan Shore fears them. After all, one of his bulls nearly killed her. It wasn't his fault, but he hasn't been able to get past a sense of guilt. He should treat the accident like a closed chapter, but if he does, she'll never return to his bed.
  Barrel racer Jordan Shore is determined to convince Cougar that she isn't having nightmares, but after a year of not seeing the quiet, complicated man, they're at the same rodeo. She can't look into his dark eyes or study his muscular body without remembering the heat they once shared. What she has to do is convince him of her courage, even though it's a lie. BREEDING SEASON:Wendi Rennert should be furious when Fred-one of rancher Mike Wagner's breeding bulls-storms into the corral holding her family's heifers, but Mike isn't just a neighbor.
He's the cowboy who took her virginity then left eastern Oregon to explore life beyond the wide open spaces the two teenagers once considered home. She'd believed she'd never see Mike again, that getting married-and divorced-would allow her to get over her first lover. Mike felt the same way. Just because he hadn't been in love before he'd led Wendi into a barn and helped her out of her jeans doesn't mean she's 'the one'.
After all, he'd gotten married-and divorced. Now they're both back home, Mike to run his own ranch and Wendi to help her parents decide whether to keep theirs. Today should be about separating Fred from the virgin cows before it's too late, not reliving the past. SOUL OF A COWBOY:Mike Moss is cowboy all the way to his bones. He wants nothing to do with cities-or the women who embrace that lifestyle.
Long ago he'd fallen in love with one and had his heart broken. Now its fall with winter crouching in the mountaintops. On horseback, he's in the forest to round up his range cattle before snow traps them, not answer probing questions from a woman who'll never understand the depth of his love for the sometimes dangerous wilderness. Kathy Vinoza isn't a city slicker but neither is she a cowgirl. She's a journalist doing research for an article she's certain Mike will see as an attack on his lifestyle.
They should be antagonists, enemies even, but nothing is simple-especially when sex is involved. They'll give into lust then go their separate ways. Maybe.
