Passion's Splendor
FALSELY ACCUSED

Beautiful Laine Dalton sat back in horror as Marshal Ranse McCandliss accused her of being connected to the infamous Dalton gang. True, she was an orphan with no link to her past, but Laine was convinced that there were no skeletons in her closet. So the fiery-haired vixen set off to put the story straight-- even if it meant traveling to the Oklahoma Territory with the handsome marshal. The only problem for Laine was the mysterious quickening of her heart each time Ranse was near, and the dream of his embrace whenever she closed her eyes. She didn't understand why her body reacted so strangely when Ranse was around, but she fully expected to find out.

TRULY CONVICTED

No one could have prepared Ranse for his first meeting with Laine Dalton. Instead of a hardened outlaw he found a rapturous angel and knew that he would do anything to make her his own. And though he tried to remember that she was the enemy, all he wanted to do was to teach her the ways of love. The entire trip to the west was exquisite torture, as he longed to stroke her silken skin, caress her velvet lips and make her cry out his name in PASSION'S SPLENDOR
