About This Book
IT WAS FURY AT FIRST SIGHT
Forty-eight hours after Kellian York arrives in Loving, Texas, the brothel he inherited is reduced to smoldering ashes. The Legion for Decency, an eccentric group of busybodies determined to rid the town of drinking, gambling, and "loose women," is only too happy to take credit for the torching. Kellian is determined to make them pay -- and who better than the group's stiff-necked spinster leader, Annie Muldoon? But the beautiful, barefoot girl is not the Annie Muldoon Kell expected. Too charitable for her own good, Annie allows Kell and his "soiled doves" to take up residence in her boarding house. Secretly, however, she plans to set them on the path to righteousness...
AND THEN THEY FELL IN LOVE
Annie soon realizes she's made the biggest mistake of her life. Her friends side against her and accidents plague the effort to rebuild the brothel -- worst of all, the sinfully tempting Kellian York begins to haunt her thoughts day and night, as he coaxes free the passionate nature she's tried to hard to hid. Annie can't tell if he wants to torture her or seduce her, but she decides two can play that game. Learning the tricks of the trade from a house full of "daughters of joy," she sets out to teach Mr. York a thing or two. But what Kell and Annie discover is that "good" isn't always virtuous, and "bad" can be ever so wonderful...
