Sweet Words of Love

SHE NEEDED A LESSON IN DESIRE

Rainey Watson is an innocent in the ways of men, but the feisty beauty knows what she wants: her handsome new teacher. Yet Robert Golden, the lucky object of her affection, barely knows she's alive. Now, Rainey has to find somebody to show her how to catch the man of her dreams -- to teach her how to be an alluring woman and not a naive mountain girl.

HE OFFERED IRRESISTIBLE TEMPTATION

Over the years, Thorne O'Brien Lassiter, the Harvard-educated son of a St. Louis shipping tycoon, has watched Rainey grow from a plucky tomboy into a lush, ripe woman with a mind all her own. A beekeeping, mule-riding girl from a cabin in the Ozarks -- she's the last thing Thorne should ever desire in a female. Yet he can't get her out of his mind. And now, she is asking him to help her seduce another man. He reluctantly agrees and soon, under his gentle, expert touch, Rainey exchanges her schoolgirl infatuation for the tempestuous affair of a passionate woman. But when Thorne's tainted past reaches out to pull him back to St. Louis and into the wiles of a vile interloper -- Rainey will get a valuable lesson in the ways of the world...and in the sweet calling of her own yearning heart.
