COURAGEOUS
The life of a paid mercenary makes sense to Special Forces Officer
Winslow Grange. The jungles of South America may make his former job as
a ranch manager for his friend Jay Pendleton look like a cakewalk, but
it's nothing that the former Green Beret can't handle. A woman's heart,
however--that's dangerous territory. Back in Texas, Grange's biggest
problem was avoiding Peg Larson and all the complications being
attracted to the daughter of his foreman would entail. Now Grange will
need all his training to help General Emilio Machado gain control of the
tiny South American nation of Barrera; when Peg arrives unannounced,
she's a distraction he can't avoid. She's determined to show Grange she
can be useful on and off the battlefield. Once she breaks through his
armor, traversing the wilds of the Amazon will prove an easier task than
defending himself against her winning charms....
PROTECTOR
His brother had been the only family he had left in the world. Hayes, a
long, tall and serious Texan, has long been suspicious of the
blond-haired, bright-eyed Minette Raynor, who is both mysterious and
beautiful. And now he's convinced that Minette was involved in giving
his brother the drugs that killed him. As far as Hayes is concerned,
neither her looks nor anything else will stand in the way of him
righting what is so very wrong. Minette can't get Hayes off her mind, or
off her back. His investigation of her is a nuisance, but as an
undercover DEA agent, that's the least of her worries. Until she finds
herself in great danger, and he's the only one who can save her. Can she
count on Hayes believing the truth--and saving her life?
