Only With You
An impulsive kiss behind the schoolhouse and Jennifer Delaney’s reputation was shot! Now she was about to lose her job and her beloved ranch—until a tall, rugged man named Thorne stepped in. The father of one of her students, Thorne offered the ultimate rescue: marriage. Jenny would care for his four year old son and he would save her ranch and her reputation. A marriage of convenience for a woman who dreamed of nothing less than love. Jenny had known Ian Thorne a lifetime ago. Together they had shared a privileged Southern childhood, until Ian was kidnapped and raised by Indians. Now he called himself only Thorne. A quiet, wary man of Comanche ways, Thorne was struggling to raise a young son alone, and trying hard to forget the pain of his wife’s betrayal. But he had never forgotten Jenny. At first, Thorne had kept his distance. But he’d watched and waited, until Jenny came to him looking for help—and asking for trouble. To his own surprise, he offered marriage. He would teach her about passion, about a woman's hungers and a man's needs. But love was too dangerous. Until Jenny taught him the meaning of home in her arms.
