Missing Book Description

A COWBOY'S TOUCH Jesses nightmare was always the same: the sudden awareness that she wasn't alone. The odor of sweat and alcohol. The rough, ugly words. And the knife. Always a fighter, Jesse had used the assailant's knife to drive the man away, but the terrifying memory remained, along with the cuts on her hands and the threat of a repeat incident. Jesse was leery of every man who came near her -- until she looked up from her hospital bed and saw the dark-haired, dark-eyed cowboy who'd always been like a brother to her. The minute King McCandless saw Jesse's tired face, he decided to bring her back to Oklahoma. He wasn't going to leave her alone in St. Louis with a madman on the loose. At home on the sprawling land of the Double M Ranch, Jesse received the best therapy possible: warm sunshine, hearty laughter, and a caring cowboy's touch. But each time she heard the husky rasp of his voice, each time she looked into his dark eyes, Jesse realized that she couldn't stay much longer. She couldn't pretend that King was her big brother anymore. Jesse LeBeau wanted this man -- heart, body, and soul.

couldn't put it down

i read this book yrs ago when it first came out. I loved it then and when I ran across the title again while searching for another Sharon Sala book, I had to reordered it because i loved it so. Even though its easy to pick out who the guilty party is the love story between King and Jesse captivated me and had me longing to reread their wonderful love story. I can't wait until the book arrives.

Is there room on the Throne for me?

Though this is the fifth book in a five-book re-release from Silhouette Books. I thoroughly enjoyed books 1 through 4 and I can tell you that King's Ransom is a fitting end to this special re-release! DON'T miss this golden opportunity to put your hands on a winner! I've always been a fan of stories featuring rough and rugged ranchers and King McCandless fits the bill! When King's love interest, young and innocent Jesse LeBeau is ruthlessly attacked in her home in St. Louis one night, King gets the news and comes to the rescue in all his glory (and he's even got a white horse!). King brings Jesse home where she can mend her tortured spirit surrounded by friends and family who will keep her safe....or will they? It's fairly easy to figure out whose the bad guy half-way through the story, but this by no means takes away a minute of your reading pleasure. There are plenty of twists and turns and questions to be answered by the end of the book. After reading this book, who wouldn't wish they had their very own "King"? If you're looking for a KING of a man, and a heck of a great story, get your hands on a copy of King's Ransom and you'll be happy you did! Happy reading!
