Mail-Order Passion

Mountain Heat (Carvers)

After months of correspondence with a lonely rancher in Colorado, widow Margaret Redde left her East Coast existence behind and headed west to start her new life on Twin Mountains Ranch. The last thing she expected was to encounter a man who denied knowledge of their long-distance courtship. When the lovely, fiery widow shows up in his remote Colorado town bearing promises signed in his name, it doesn't take Ethan Carver long to figure out he and Margaret had both been duped by his younger brother, James, who also bound Ethan and Margaret together for a year as man and wife.
Margaret wants security and she doesn't care where it comes from — one brother is as good as the other…until Ethan touches her. One night in his arms changes everything. His hot kisses send her up in flames and teach her desires she didn't know she possessed.
Soon, Ethan knows a year isn't nearly enough time to explore Margaret's lush mouth and curvy body, but Twin Mountains Ranch doesn't have a history of keeping its women. Margaret will leave eventually...but Ethan is determined to make sure when she does leave, she carries his mark on her heart.
