Ranch Heat — Starla Kaye

Ranch Heat: Three of the hottest contemporary Westerns to come along in a long time! “Dude Ranch,” “Crooked-T Ranch,” and “Suzy Q Ranch” all have one thing in common: city girls who meet no-nonsense cowboys! Three novellas - twenty two chapters in all! In Dude Ranch, Jake Caldwell's grandmother suggests a marriage of convenience between Jake and Rylee Jamison. A ridiculous idea, except both Jake and Rylee have reasons of their own for thinking it just might work. In Suzy Q Ranch, Suzy has wasted so many years trying to settle down. Unexpectedly, she inherits the ranch where she lived as a foster child. But there's a catch: she must share the inheritance with Trent Tyler, who's already broken her heart once. Who will win the battle for the ranch AND for Suzy's heart? In Crooked T Ranch, ex-bull rider Travis McVey needs time to figure out what he's going to do with his life now that he's given up the rodeo. A job as a ranch foreman on an isolated Wyoming ranch seems the perfect solution... that is until Jodi Thompson, the boss's bratty daughter shows up. Her father is none too happy with his daughter's college career and thinks a summer of hard work under Travis supervision is just what his daughter needs.
