GOOD AND SASSY -- BUT

Cover is not good enough for the descriptions inside. Lance White Eagle Steele is half Navajo and on his way home to Montana and Buck Stanton's ranch where he works. He has just attended his grandmother Steele's funeral in New Orleans and is reeling from having met unknown relatives from his father's side. He suddenly feels alone and without roots. A gypsy had stumbled into him and gave him an antique ring and told him to let it bring his heart's desire. A family, wife and kids and belonging. We follow him through a raging blizzard where he picks up Marci and her baby, Angelina. He can't leave them to perish in the icy cold storm. They make it to a truck stop where he can't see Marci going off with a truck driver clear to Cheyenne so he offers to take them himself. Then he stops at Hank and Marianne's Cafe where Marci finds out that Lance and Marianne had been involved years ago [on the rodeo circuit] and before she met Hank, a buddy of Lances'. Marci soon learns about Lance helping those in need and how he helps the couples out. Lance had helped Hank's brother, Bobby and Vicki build their house. Bobby keeps a guest room for whenever Lance passes through. They live about 50 miles west of Hank and Marianne. Yup! the road to Cheyenne is blocked so Lance turns around and heads back for Bobby's place [Bobby & Vicki and sons are in Florida for a vacation] where he holds up with Marci and Angie. Here the hormones take over and are pushed to the limit by the little vixen, Marci [who definitely has plans to see the world]. Just a short affair [that she can't justify] with no strings attached. Not exactly what Lance has in mind. Marci is pushing aside the thoughts of Lorna Stanton that Lance had in mind to propose to. After much agonizing Lance takes Marci and Angie to Cheyenne and heads for Montana, only he ends up at Bobby's place again. They are home at this time. And wouldn't you know, Lance has lost the antique ring. Except for all of the mating, the story is pretty solid but I sure couldn't wait to finish it. Characters are excellent, good sensitivity, different enough to enjoy reading. Will Recommend --M

A great sexy story for Christmas!

It's Christmas Eve and Lance White Eagle Seele is driving through a snowstorm to get to Montana. Ever since he was a child he had moved around from town to town. But now this untamed sexy man has decided to put down roots and settle down. He is ready for a real home now and perhaps one day soon a family. He even has an engagement ring given to him by a mysterious gypsy. Marci Griffin and her baby, Angie, are heading west so Marci can start her new job, one that promises adventure and travel. She is leaving behind an abusive marriage and a broken heart. And now her car has broken down. Lance finds them huddled next to the road and agrees to give them a ride. They seem to have nothing in common but a strong attraction to each other. The storm turns into a blinding blizzard and the three of them hole up in a secluded cabin. Lance falls for Marci and her charming baby. Soon the sparks start to fly and things sizzle. But Marci is determined not to let another man rule her and let anything get in her way of her new life. It's great to see these two strong willed and determined people get together. This is a great story of love concouring all and of course the great sex doesn't hurt. Linda Conrad is one of our greatest romance writers and she doesn't disappoint us with this new book. This is a great hot sexy read and you'll love it!
