The Reluctant Bride

Marissa Davidson and Kane Blackwell have known each other nearly all their lives. After a nasty divorce brings her back to the ranch town they grew up in, Kane soon realizes he wants the lovely thorn in his side for his own.

But Rissa has been hurt, badly, and the idea of marriage – to anyone – is enough to make her run.

Kane finds occasion to take the beautiful, stubborn woman in hand many times over the course of their budding, heated relationship, but will he be able to convince her to stop making him pay for the sins of her ex? Will an ultimatum bring about the desired reply or will Rissa run like the wind?
