Someone To Protect Her. Patricia RosemoorЧитать онлайн книгу.
Only an idiot would have kissed the stubborn scientist…
And maybe Frank was. What had he been thinking? This was no romantic tryst, but a serious situation. Not that romance was his specialty, anyway. Every man had deficiencies, and that happened to be his.
Realizing she hadn’t budged from her precarious spot on the edge of the slope, he cursed. He had to get her down. “What are you waiting for?”
“For hell to freeze over!” she yelled back in a very unladylike manner.
“Consider it frozen! Don’t make me come up there, C.J., or so help me—”
“What? What is it you’ll do to me?”
He heard the panic in her voice, and thought quickly of how he could defuse it. “I’ll kiss you again! Only I won’t stop there—I’ll touch you in places you didn’t know you had. Before I’m through, you’ll be begging me to make love to you!”
Dear Harlequin Intrigue Reader,
What’s bigger than Texas…? Montana! This month, Harlequin Intrigue takes you deep undercover to the offices of MONTANA CONFIDENTIAL. You loved the series when it first premiered in the Lone Star State, so we’ve created a brand-new set of sexy cowboy agents for you farther north in Big Sky country. Patricia Rosemoor gets things started in Someone To Protect Her. Three more installments follow—and I can assure you, you won’t want to miss one!
Amanda Stevens concludes her dramatic EDEN’S CHILDREN miniseries with The Forgiven. All comes full circle in this redemptive story that reunites mother and child.
What would you do if your “wife” came back from the dead? Look for In His Wife’s Name for the answer. In a very compelling scenario, Joyce Sullivan explores the consequences of a hidden identity and a desperate search for the truth.
Rounding out the month is the companion story to Harper Allen’s miniseries THE AVENGERS. Sullivan’s Last Stand, like its counterpart Guarding Jane Doe, is a deeply emotional story about a soldier of fortune and his dedication to duty. Be sure to pick up both titles by this exceptional new author.
Cowboys, cops—action, drama…it’s just another month of terrific romantic suspense from Harlequin Intrigue.
Happy reading!
Sincerely,
Denise O’Sullivan

Knowing nothing about planes, flying or transporting horses by air when I started this book, I must give credit to those who gave me the information I needed to select the correct plane that could both transport horses and land in the mountains and to write a realistic controlled crash.
Thanks to writers Vickie Spears, Cassandra Blizzard, Mary Adamski and Harriet Robbins Ackert. To pilot Clifford Wells and his wife, D.J. And to horse transporter Carl Webster.
