A Stranger's Wife

It Was Supposed to Be a Charade...
With his big shoulders and bold ideas, Quinn Westin is hellbound to be the first governor of the newly created state of Colorado. One obstacle stands in his way...the threat of scandal after his wife mysteriously runs off. But Westin has an audacious solution -- find a woman who is the spitting image of his vanished Miriam.

They Weren't Supposed to Fall in Love.
After 5 years in prison, Lily Dale finally wins her freedom...for a price. Under Westin's smoldering gaze, Lily slowly transform from a rough frontier woman to the polished beauty fit for the arm -- but never the bed -- of a future governor. Never, that is, until Westin's searing touch overcomes her growing suspicions about her predecessor's true fate... and until hot, whispered words dangerously defy his carefully written script.
