To Love a Cowboy

TOO HOT TO HANDLE

From the heels of his dusty boots to the curls of his wild blond hair, Nick Ramsey was every inch a cowboy, one of the best on the rodeo circuit. But the routine of dodging bulls and rambling from town to town was wearing thin for Nick, making him wonder what the future held. Then he saw her, the dark-haired, bright-eyed beauty who'd once tugged on his heart. What was his stepsister doing in the audience of a Kansas arena?

Dee Williams wasn't thrilled to be back in the dust and grit of cow country. Years ago she'd learned that ranch life was not for her. But she had agreed to illustrate her friend's book on cowboys, and she needed photos to use as reference for her drawings.

The minute Dee spotted Nick she knew this assignment was a mistake. She couldn't do her job and keep her distance. But she couldn't bear to be near Nick, the man she'd had a crush on during her difficult teen years, the man with a slow, heated smile that simmered in his eyes. Sparks flew whenever Nick was near. And Dee had learned that you couldn't get close to a man like Nick without getting burned.
