About the book
She had come to take his inheritance. Natasha Ames wasn't surprised that Jay Travers resented her presence on his family's Texas ranch. Not after she learned that his grandfather, who had met Natasha on a trip to England, had left her half of his property in his will. Natasha didn't know why the shrewd old Texan had made such a bequest to a virtual stranger, but she was determined not to leave until she found out. It wasn't easy living with Jay's hostility - especially when Natasha found herself falling in love with the harsh rancher.
