About the book
He was the epitome of masculinity—and rich as sin. But with midlife approaching, Texas baron Hank Langley was in sore need of a wife. And finding a Mrs. Langely from the bevy of social-climbing beauties was a challenge even for this ex-military man. Until Callie Riley, his new, much younger secretary, breezed into his life and took Hank's hardened heart by storm. Suddenly he was learning more about love than he'd ever thought possible. Could the millionaire convince this fresh-faced country girl to say "I do" to an older man?
Five wealthy Texas bachelors—all members of the state's most exclusive club—set out on a mission to rescue a princess...and find true love.
