Tough Guy

SHOWDOWN TO LOVE

The last thing Owen Ketter wanted was a partner. Correction...a female partner. His mind was made up -- absolutely, positively, finally. And no woman in the world would unmake it.

When an equally determined Bonnie Maxwell arrived in Leadville ready to ride to the rescue of Owen's failing ski lodge, she knew her work was cut out for her -- beginning with persuading her very unwilling partner to take her on.

Owen Ketter was a tough guy, all right, but Bonnie happened to like tough guys -- and, if she had her way, this one would like her, too. Bonnie gave herself six months to revitalize the lodge -- and along with it, the heart and soul of the sexiest, stubbornest, most exasperating innkeeper in town!
