Book excerpt: SHE GOT WHAT SHE WANTED Lisette Keller was determined to leave and pursue her dream of opening a millinery shop in Chicago--but first she had to find a way to get there! If she could persuade handsome rancher Gil McLoughlin to hire her as a cook on his cattle drive to Abilene, she'd be well on her way, and she'd arrive with money in her pockets to boot! But Lisette hadn't counted on quivering at Gil's first fiery touch or craving the taste of his lips on hers. Whatever her future might hold, Lisette knew she must surrender to the sudden passion that coursed through her whenever Gil gazed into her eyes, savor his ardent caresses, and learn love's deepest secrets in his bold rapturous embrace... all the way to Kansas! HE FOUND WHAT HE NEEDED When a feisty blond minx applied for the job of cook on the long hot trail drive from Texas to Abilene, Gil McLoughlin was tempted--and not because of Gisette's skills over a cookfire. But how could he keep his mind on his longhorns with the curvaceous beauty close by? Those baby-blue eyes would turn a monk to sin, and he was no monk! One kiss from Lisette's pouty, red lips and Gil knew he had to have her. The long hard Chisholm Trail lay ahead, with many a starry night beneath the Texas sky. He'd explore every inch of her velvety softness, coax her into his arms with fiery caresses, then carry her over the threshold of passion in the rapturous heat of his embrace.
