Originally published by Ivy Book in August 1995.
SummaryLike most of the young ladies in Fort Worth, Noelle Brown
was smitten by handsome, charming Andrew Paige. But when she
challenged the steely-eyed gaze of his stepbrother Jared,
something inside her felt a little wild, a little
thrilled...a little afraid.
He was a big-city lawyer with a killer's stance—a
desperado turned lawman, disillusioned with life and haunted
by a past he couldn't escape. But this tender, green girl,
with her flashfire temper and her unconventional ways,
tempted and tormented him with a sweet, maddening passion.
Rivalry would pit brother against brother and scandal would
rock their lives. And Noelle would have to convince a man
unwilling to believe in love that only he could still the
anguish in her heart—and fulfill the promise of their
destiny together....
