McKettrick's Choice


Book Description

From a New York Times–bestselling author, “intrigue, danger, and greed are up against integrity, kindness, and love in this engrossing western romance” (Booklist). When news arrived that there was trouble back in Texas, Holt McKettrick left a mail-order bride and his family on the spot. And he never looked back. He just prayed he’d be in time to save the man who had raised him as a son and keep his best friend from the gallows. He knew he’d encounter rustlers, scoundrels and thieves, but he’d never expected to find a woman like Lorelei Fellows. Setting fire to her wedding dress in the town square probably wasn’t the best way to stand her ground. But Lorelei had had enough. She was sick of men and their schemes. All she wanted was to stake her claim on her own little piece of Texas. And with Holt McKettrick as a neighbor, things were beginning to look up. The man was a straight shooter with a strong will, a steady aim and a hungry heart. “Highly enjoyable. . . . Strong characterization and a vivid western setting make for a fine historical romance.” —Publishers Weekly
