Gale Force

LIKE A HURRICANE ...

Jace Wyatt had learned the hard way to trust only himself. He was a loner who didn't believe in love, loyalty or forever. But when stubbornly optimistic Mattie Thornton offered him everything--no strings attached--he was tempted beyond reason. Still, Jace knew what she really needed was stability--the one thing he thought he could never give.

Mattie had been content to run the family business--until Jace arrived and disrupted her tranquil life. Tough, tender and honest, Jace was all she had ever wanted in a man. Mattie heard his words of denial, but she also sensed the storm raging inside his heart--and she never gave up without a fight!
