Renegade Embrace
THE MAN OF HER FANTASIES
Lovely Laurette Allen was shocked by the barbarity of life in California. At her very first fiesta, she was pulled into the shadows and forcibly kissed by tall, dark Cade Caldwell. But much worse than the manners of the menfolk was the cruelty of the tax collectors who preyed on the local villagers. Laurie was determined to do something about it -- even if it meant flirting with a few self-important officials. What she really wished was that a hero on horseback would sweep down on the town and rid them of the villains with the tip of his flashing sword. A hero whose courage would put to shame that blackguard Caldwell, whose mocking eyes reminded her of that brief surrender to his shocking, thrilling caresses -- and promised her the fulfillment of her most secret fantasies...

She'd succumb to him as easily as the tax collectors surrendered to El Vengador -- and the prize would be even sweeter...
