About the book

Zoe courts a cowboy!

She drives a Porsche, he drives a pickup.... She's a Hollywood socialite, he's a tough, rugged rancher who despises glitz and glamour and wouldn't be seen dead in a tuxedo!

Zoe and John Dalton Hayes are worlds apart, and J.D. is none too happy at having Zoe as a guest in his home.... But opposites attract and every time they start out disagreeing, somehow they end up kissing!

J.D. is convinced Zoe is just flirting with him, teasing him to get what she wants--his ranch. And what does J.D. want? Could it be that, against his better judgment, what he really wants is a wife?
