The Lady Dares — Leigh Ellwood

8000 words - Romance with mature (cougar) heroine.

NOTE: This title was previously published as Handle With Dare.

All Marlene Robeson wanted was the happily ever after and the ride into the sunset. Now divorced with few romantic prospects, all she has is a stool at Dareville's most popular bar and a chip on her shoulder. While friends party on with their significant others, Marlene sulks.

Jeff, the handsome young bartender, is willing to lend a sympathetic ear…and two arms, and much more. Marlene doesn't consider herself a “cougar,” yet one look at Jeff's lean body has her ready to test her claws.
