Sweet Revenge — Kelly Wallace

A Bitter Breakup - Seven years ago Rachel Loftin and rancher-turned-sheriff Cole Walker had a good thing going. The sex was great and she wanted nothing more. After her parents divorced and she was virtually abandoned at the age of 15 Rachel didn't believe in happily-ever-after. When Cole proposed to her she severed all ties with him and went about her life, though she never forgot about him. A Town Needs Saving - Thirty years ago Hidden Falls went through a rough patch and Ferris Loftin bought up most of the businesses. Since then, he's owned the deeds and town morale has struggled. Now that he's been diagnosed with terminal cancer Rachel will be the sole heir of her father's estate--if she meets the requirement: She needs a husband. A Marriage Of Convenience - With time ticking, Rachel finds herself desperate and asks Cole if he'll marry her just until she gets the deeds back and into the hands of the townspeople. Cole readily agrees and, though Rachel is suspicious over his willingness, she can't deny the fact that having this man in her bed again is too exciting to pass up. Once her plan unfolds she and Cole will divorce and part ways once again. It seems pretty simple. The problem is, she has no idea that Cole Walker is planning a little sweet revenge.
