My favorite Historical by Sandra Brown.
I realy enjoyed this book, quite a different Sandra Brown, very good reading
The Texas countryside was wide and wild, the barn was warm and musty, and the passion between Banner Coleman and her parents' best friend, Jake Langston, was going to be the start of trouble. Betrayal had ruined Banner's wedding day, and now on her wedding night she was a jilted bride. Jake was the toughest cowhand in Texas, yet Banner had broken down his resistance, setting loose emotions neither of them expected. Now Jake and Banner were caught up in a scandal that could tear apart a friendship and a family. But theirs wasn't the only sin this rough town outside of lusty Fort Worth. Greed and desire stretched back to a wagon train journey 20 years before, and this cattle land would explode once more with a man's hunger and a woman's enduring love.
