"Taming the Texas Tycoon" by Katherine Garbera is the 1st book in "The Maverick County Millionare" series of The Texas Cattleman Club. This is Lance Brody and Kate Thornton's story. Kate is Lance's secretary. Kate -- viewed as a plain Jane -- has always dreamed of becoming Lance's wife. Therefore, it comes as a shock when Lance announces that he is engaged to be married. Engaged to a senator's daughter -- one he has not met or been involved with. Even though this is a marriage of convenience, Kate has had the last straw so to speak. She is devastated by the news and decides to turn in her resignation. Lance is not too pleased by this news. Being a man, he has no idea how Kate feels. Even when Kate's friend encourages her to lose the baggy clothes and big rimmed eyeglassed and to change her wardrobe all together, Lance is stunned when he sees the new Kate. The Kate that other men in the office have also started to notice -- the Kate that Lance has noticed before, but never gave it a thought. Lance is jealous, but feels obligated to do the right thing for the company -- that is, wed the senator's daughter so the senator can help pass a bill that will benefit not only Lance's company, but others as well. "Taming the Texas Tycoon" is an eyeopener. It is a great love story.
