The Cowboy's Courtship

That Night in the Rockies...
Colorado cowboy Lafe Colter never refused a willing female. Until the night heartsore Michelle Royer let him kiss away her tears -- and her inhibitions. Lafe had nobly sent Michelle packing. He wasn't a man who make promises, and she wasn't the type who'd be happy with less. But her heart-stopping beauty and innocent ways haunted him, making him hungry for more...

One Year Later...
Once, Michelle had bared her sorrows -- and her soul -- to Lafe. But he'd turned her down, leaving her hot-cheeked with memories of melting in his arms. Now he was back -- his desires plain, and his intentions clear. He wanted Michelle. And this time, he was asking for nothing less than marriage.
