A Real Cowboy (Cowboys of Holiday Ranch, 1)

New York Times bestselling author Carla Cassidy brings cowboys, suspense and blazing passion under starry Oklahoma skies! "I ride alone," cowboy Lucas Taylor warns New Yorker Nicolette Kendall. But when she and her son, Sammy, settle into Holiday Ranch, things are about to change for the sexy straight-shooting loner. After a frightening kidnapping attempt, Lucas becomes six-year-old Sammy's beloved bodyguard...while trying—in vain—to resist white-hot sparks between him and the boy's gorgeous city-slicker mom. Nicolette can't deny the attraction either. But she's been heartbroken once too often and won't hitch her star to a cowboy interested only in a fling. Until there's a real danger to her own life...and heart! Then will she trade her high heels for cowboy boots?
