A. C. Bannister: the second of Four
Strong Men
Rank has its privileges -- except in love!
Major A. C. Bannister -- known as Ace -- grew up on the mean streets of a Texas town. The army was his one chance to get out, and he took it. He worked his way up through the ranks and now, as ROTC head at a Texas college, he's admired by all the young men -- and adored by all the young women. Truly a "major attraction..."
Captain Meredith Marshall St. James has a West Point education, a General for a father and an attitude that doesn't meet with the Major's approval. Ace just doesn't hold with her belief in a "new" army, a "softer" army.
He soon learns two things:
1. the beautiful Captain St. James isn't as soft as she looks, and
2. on the battlefield of love, unconditional surrender is sometimes
the only option!

Roz Denny Fox gives many insights into controlling one's own destiny
while portraying a smoldering love story.
STARR LEDERMAN. She was named after the Christmas Star. She's a woman who knows her own mind and heart, a woman who values family and family traditions. So she's determined to give her almost-adopted daughter, SeLi, the most wonderful Christmas possible.
SeLi, who's nine years old and wise beyond her years, knows what she wants for Christmas. A dad. Which means a husband for Starr -- whether Starr wants one or not! In fact, SeLi's already got a man picked out. Now she's going to wish extra-hard on the Christmas star, and the name she'll whisper is Clay McLeod.
CLAY McLEOD. He's a rancher with a soft spot for children and animals. He believes in family. But he's not interested in marriage -- especially to a woman as headstrong as Starr. A woman he believes is having an affair with his brother. His married brother.
At Christmastime, though, things have a way of working out.

Great Story! Funny, sensitive and with a touch of intrigue. The characters are warm
and loveable. You can feel their fears and desires and want them fulfilled as much as they
do.

Crockett County, Texas
Lizbeth Robbins has been following the rodeo circuit for the past six years, learning the farrier's trade, dragging her little girl from town to town. But now her daughter's in school and Lizbeth needs a more permanent job. She's relieved to find one at the Lone Spur: shoeing Gil Spencer's quarter horses. Even if it was his foreman who hired her and the man himself doesn't want her anywhere near his ranch!
Gil Spencer hates rodeos -- mainly because his ex-wife loves them. While he was busy pulling his ranch out of the red, she was busy pursuing a career as a champion barrel-racer. Worse yet, the ex-Mrs. Spencer abandoned her husband and their twin sons for the dubious charms of some bronc rider. So the last person Gil wants on the Lone Spur is a former rodeo employee. Even if Lizbeth Robbins is the most attractive woman he's me in years. Especially then...

Have Matchmakers. Will Marry!
Tibby Mack -- sweet Tibby Mack. She's twenty-seven, which makes her the youngest resident of Yaqui Springs, a retirement community near California's Salton Sea. The folds there have become her family, her friends...her matchmakers. But since the youngest man in town is sixty-five, the chances of finding Tibby a husband are slim to none.
Then...Cole O'Donnell is "enticed" to Yaqui Springs. He meets all the matchmakers' qualifications. Age: 30. Looks: good (make that great!). And he's inherited his grandfather's property. He's the answer to their prayers (though not to Tibby's!).
What the matchmakers don't know is that Tibby and Cole have a history. Or that Cole's involved with another woman. Or that Tibby and Cole are at odds over a post office -- and a game of golf!
What the matchmakers do know is that these two are in love, and that once in a while, love needs a nudge...

"I
contend that today's man could handle the rigors of pioneer life. Could a woman?"
-- Nolan Campbell
"You bet! Anything he can
do, she can do, too!"
-- Emily Benton
"And probably better!"
-- Sherry Campbell
There's only one way to find out. Nolan Campbell (known as Camp) recruits a group of women to reenact the kind of wagon train journey made by settlers of the 1820's. These women include his sharp-tongued sister, Sherry -- and Emily Benton. Emily with her fragile beauty, her delightful laugh, her two impossible children. Emily, who's as determined and capable as any pioneer.
Surrounded by big horses and smart women, Camp discovers that wagon train life, 1990's-style, isn't what he expected. Sometimes it's fun (not to mention funny) and sometimes it's frightening. Kind of like falling in love. With Emily...

Top Gun Meets His Match
Major Ace Bannister hadn't survived life on the mean streets of Texas or worked his way up through the ranks by being a "softie." No, it had been hard work and discipline that had gotten him where he was today, and he wasn't about to change -- not even for an alluring and sexy female captain who believed in a "new" army.
Captain Meredith Marshall St. James had a West Point education, a general for a father and an attitude that didn't meet with Major Bannister's approval. But if Ace didn't like her attitude, he sure liked everything else about her -- which taught him that on the battlefield of love, unconditional surrender is sometimes the only option!

They call him "the baby cop"
Ethan Knight, a detective in Desert City, Arizona, believes in putting children first. He's created an unofficial network of foster care for abused and abandoned kids; he's done this by calling on family and friends, circumventing the system to get kids the help they need, when they need it.
They call her "the battle-ax"
Regan Grant is a by-the-book social worker, a woman who doesn't believe in "unofficial." She's the new supervisor at Child Help services, and she's been hired to make sure the rules are followed. All the rules, all the time.
The other cops figure that if anyone can persuade her to bend those
rules, it's Ethan. If anyone can make her fall in love, it's Ethan... and four

Duke
Fontaine is dead, but he's left behind a
daughter no one knew he had. A daughter
who's about to inherit one-third of his estate.
Noelani Hana is the secret daughter of Louisiana sugar magnate Duke Fontaine - and the secret sister of his children Casey and Jackson. Their existence is as much of a shock to her as hers is to them.
Complying with the terms of his will, Noelani travels to Bellefontaine, the family estate and sugar plantation. She wants nothing more than to collect her share of the inheritance and return home to Hawaii.
Three things stop her. One, she'll have to wait for the cane harvest, since the Fontaines are land rich and cash poor. Two, she discovers that they apparently have an enemy willing to sabotage Bellefontaine, and as Noelani is now a member of the family, she, too, becomes a target. And three - she meets Adam Ross. A man who's sweet as sugar, sexy as sin and damn good in a crisis.

I really love these two stories. I usually recycle my

read over and over. The thing I like about your writing is that all
the characters are true to life, and all are interesting, I especially get a
kick out of the words you put into children's mouths. I raised six of
my own, so I know your portrayals are accurate. I found myself wishing
there would be a 3rd book, but you seemed to wrap it up pretty well. I
remember an English lit teacher telling me once that when you write a story
there should be no wasted words. Every word, every sentence must build
to the story climax. I recognize your writing to do just that. I
can't do any "skip reading" like I do with some authors. As long as
you write, I will be reading your books.

Taking a teaching job in a desolate corner of Idaho was Kate Steele's way of making sure her in-laws didn't turn her son, Danny, into a shiftless bronc buster like his father. Except in the middle of nowhere she unexpectedly ran headlong into a genuine buckaroo...
Don't they?
Being a good parent and a born rancher were all that mattered to Ben Trueblood - until gutsy Kate came along. Suddenly he found himself explaining to Danny the rodeo circuit wasn't all that exciting... and considering the idea of hanging up his spurs. Anything was possible if it meant having Kate.

A quote from a reader/fan:
I grew up in the Owyhee mountains and I can relate to so much that
you wrote about. I have always been proud to keep my roots planted in
the desert and reading your words confirmed all that I feel. The life
one leads with a foundation built upon the knowledge and strength that is
branded into you is an awesome occasion! I look forward to reading
more of your novels and wish you the best of luck.

A mother and child reunion?
Over a year ago Garnet Patton's young daughter disappeared without a trace, kidnapped by her ex-husband. And now a big-city cop thinks a little girl in rural Georgia might be Sophie.
Yet Detective Julian Cavenaugh insists on proceeding with the utmost caution. The child he saw appeared healthy and happy and doted on by a loving father. Without proof that the girl is Garnet's daughter, Julian can't make false accusations against an innocent man. Or raise a desperate mother's hope. Especially, when he's already emotionally involved.
Garnet knows in her heart that the girl is Sophie. And that she's fallen for Julian when she never expected to feel anything again. But when they arrive in Georgia, they learn that the girl has vanished once more...

A quote from a reader/fan:
I want to thank you for "Looking For Sophie." I enjoy all of
your Superromances but this one especially touched my heart. I
couldn't put it down until I finished with happy tears running down my face.
It should be a must read for parents involved in custody battles.
Maybe that would end searching for missing children.
