The One I Love

Widowed after a disastrous year of marriage, Lily Monroe vowed to never again relinquish her freedom to any man, until a deadly band of comancheros rode onto her ranch. Their leader, the tall, powerful half-breed, Shadow Hawk Quinn, coolly informed her that he was the ranch's new owner. She could stay on the land she cherished - if she agreed to marry him and give him a child. Disillusioned and weary after many long years in the saddle, Quinn was determined to put down roots at last. Exquisite Lily Monroe was an unexpected asset on the ranch he'd won at cards - and Quinn was impressed when the outrageous beauty accepted his less-than-romantic proposal. Now he would have everything he'd ever wanted: a home, a wife, a family. But what Quinn hadn't bargained on was falling desperately in love with his spirited bride - or risking everything to claim the key to her heart.
