With his deadline approaching, he plans an in-name-only marriage with a maid who’ll cook and clean for his guests. When a pampered, pretty heiress arrives instead, the deception confirms Garret’s distrust of women. But Virginia Winterman has more substance than her elegant clothes suggest. Fleeing West to escape a cruel suitor, Virginia finds a business arrangement with Whisper Creek’s brusque hotel owner is mutually beneficial, and she relishes being useful. Yet what was once a practical solution soon blossoms into a deeper union. Can Garret get past old betrayals before his future with Virginia slips away?

Wade and Royce are two very different men with a similar way of dealing with their naughty women: a good switch and a steady hand. Liz will do anything to get away from her evil guardian, even disguise herself as a boy and head west. When Caroline, a stranger on the train next to her, sees through her disguise and begs her to take her place as a mail-order bride, Liz doesn't hesitate long before saying yes. It had to be easier than working on a ranch, and as a married woman with a new name, she'll be out of her evil guardian's clutches forever. Wade Malone has been looking forward to his new bride for months, but when "Caroline" finally arrives, things don't exactly add up. For one, she was supposed to be twenty-four years old, and the woman who came off the train doesn't look a day over sixteen. He has a strong aversion to liars, particularly in a wife. But he's also a man who keeps his promises and whoever the woman is at his side, he's made a commitment to have and to hold. That doesn't mean he won’t blister her fanny if it will keep her safe. Even with his firm hand, Liz starts to fall for the no-nonsense rancher and his children. How will she ever keep him from finding out the complete truth about the switch? And if he does find out, will she have to leave the ranch she's come to love? Caroline can't follow through with the mail order marriage she had agreed to. Anxious to get home, she has more reason to hurry when she receives a wire relaying a family emergency. Traveling with the Union Pacific across the mid-west is a long, hot trip and Caroline's temper flares at the man who takes responsibility for the railroad’s many disappointments. Her temper isn't the only thing flaring, her bottom also feels the heat when Royce Ashby had had enough of her bad humor. A man's patience can only take him so far and it is quite obvious to him that Caroline is in need of a keeper. Two old favorites, rewritten as one, with a special, bonus chapter. Publisher's Note: This sweet, action-packed historical romance contains a theme of power exchange.

Upon the impassioned request of her dear friend, Annabel Coleman, scheduled to become a mail order bride, Gisela Craig had reluctantly switched identities on their trek west from South Carolina to Colorado. At the last minute (thankfully before final arrangements were made and a husband duped), the truth had come out. Although Gisela, who has rightfully reclaimed her name and character, had no plans to be married, she is drawn to the charming and devilishly handsome Jesse, second oldest of the Falcon sons, as he is to her. Within a short time, they celebrate their romance in a double wedding ceremony with Sam and Annabel and set up housekeeping on the Cottonwood Ranch. All is going well. Gisela and Jesse are plainly in love; she is happily settling into the ranch routine and adapting to her change in circumstances; relations with all of her new in-laws can be seen as friendly and supportive. All is going far too well. Because, as always, there’s another shoe to drop. One rainy October day, the sheriff of Pasto Verde arrives at the Falcon homestead. He has come with a single express purpose: to arrest newlywed Gisela Craig Falcon. For murder.
