Prairie Heat

by Madeline Baker

WILDFIRE A remorseless bounty hunter, an impenitent outlaw, and a renegade Apache boy -- they made strange traveling companions for a prim, Boston-bred spinster like Matilda Thornton. But before the stagecoach could rattle its dusty way through the dangerous Indian territory, Matilda would unpin her hair, roll up her sleeves and save the lives of all three. She would risk torture, ravishment and capture by savages. And in the strong, bronzed arms of the most unlikely suitor, she would lose her innocence, trade her virtue for a night of ecstasy, and discover a wild desire that rivaled the scorching heat of the prairie sun.
