The Marshal and the Heiress
U.S. Marshall Ben Master stared down outlaws and desperados every day, but when he became the guardian of newly ophaned Sarah Ann, he faced trouble of a different kind. Word came that the 4 year old was lost heir to a Scottish estate, so he took her across the ocean, never expecitng to find a household divided by ambitions...or his head and body warring over Sarah Ann's remarkable aunt. Lisbeth Hamilton possessed a swift intelligence Ben's sharp mind appreciated, a tempting figure his fingers ached to carress and a future jeopardized by her niece's claim. When Sarah Ann's life became threatened, Ben's lawman instincts pointed to Lisbeth, despite the protests of his newly awakened heart.
