THE RANCHER'S SPITTIN' IMAGE

Book excerpt: TEXAS BRIDES HIS WOMAN, HIS CHILD Jesse Barrister was back—lean muscled, broad shouldered and fit to be tied. Seemed his former sweetheart Mandy McCloud had a child who was the rancher's spittin' image. Could the boy be a Barrister? And if so, would the long-ragin' feud between the Barristers and the McClouds finally come to an end? Jesse wasn't looking to make amends—all he wanted was to claim his son…and another night in Mandy's arms. But sharing a child with Mandy was a whole lot different from sharing a bed with her. And soon the hard-hearted cowboy had a hankering to wake up next to Mandy, morning after morning after morning…. TEXAS BRIDES: Come on down to the McCloud family ranch—'cause there's no place like Texas for a wedding!
