Lang Nelson didn't know if he was hiring a cook, or taking in a stray. Beth Richards said she knew her way around a kitchen, and the Rafter N, the Colorado ranch that had been in the Nelson family for generations, needed help in the worst way. Still Lang's common sense--and the frightened look in Beth's eyes--told him the lovely lady was on the run.
Fleeing life in a gilded cage of wealth and status, Beth immediately found herself drawn to the rugged cowboy who made her feel safe for the first time. But a dark secret in her past made her shy away from Lang's passionate touch. And though she knew she'd covered her tracks enough to hide out forever, her own heart was starting to give her away.
