Legend claims this antique Irish wedding veil can grant your heart's deepest desire. But be careful what you wish for... The moment Texas socialite Delaney Cartwright touches the veil, she knows she can't go through with her wedding. And it's not just because she envisions a stranger's dark eyes and irresistible lips the second her fingers hit lace. But she can't simply call the whole thing off. The nuptials to her nice, predictable childhood friend are the social event of the season (not to mention that her mother would freak). To fan the flames of this dying ember, Delaney abducts her fiance for a night of passion...and grabs the wrong guy! It isn't her fault that Detective Nick Vinetti of the oddly familiar eyes and lips has crossed her path--and looks game for all kinds of sexy fun. Now Delaney hatches an outrageous plan to get out of marrying: she'll hire her own kidnapper. With an altar to avoid and a cop to dream of, this runaway bride is hoping a little Irish magic will unveil the true destiny of her heart.

As free as wild mustangs, Jeb, Simon and Hank vowed never to submit to the reins of marriage. And these long, tall Texans made no excuses for being prideful, ironhearted, solitary bachelors. It was simply who these Jacobsville men were -- and who they would always be -- from the brims of their signature Stetsons to the spurs on their dusty boots. Unless, of course, a certain trio of provocative beauties -- sweetly innocent, yet sensual as a bouquet of yellow roses -- tempt these Lone Star heroes off the range... and into a tender, timeless embrace!
