Fire up your love of romance with Montana Rose, where Cassie Griffin, a seemingly spoiled pregnant woman, is widowed one day and wedded the next. Marrying handyman Red Dawson seems the only alternative to Cassie’s being hitched to a brutal rancher. But can this “china doll” bear exchanging smooth silk for coarse calico? Red was reluctant to be yoked to an unbeliever, but sometimes a man has no choice. Will Red change Cassie’s heart by changing her name? Wade Sawyer is obsessed with saving Cassie from a marriage of convenience. How far will he go make her his own?

Rose is a rancher at heart. There's no doubt in her mind that if given another chance, she can make a success of homesteading. She will not fail this time. People scoff, saying ranching is too much of a job for a lone woman to undertake. But Rose is no ordinary woman. She may be petite, stylish, and beautiful, but she is also strong and driven. Every aspect of ranching brings joy to her heart. Then why is she here in Wise River, Montana, taking orders from a mean-spirited school board and attempting something she has no clue how to do? Teaching? Jesse Rivers carries his own baggage on his wide shoulders. He's been called home by a dying stepmother to take over the Rocking R Ranch and the care of a belligerent and wounded brother. A rugged, lanky cowboy, Jesse is also demanding, surly, and afraid to love. No, he can't love. What if he has buried inside him the same volatile anger as his father, resulting in brutality by strong fists or a whip? Then Jesse meets Rose. Strong willed, outspoken, determined, and oh-so-desirable.

When Rose McKinney learns of the death of her father, she leaves St. Louis and her life at the Purple Moon, one of the best cathouses in the city, and moves to the ranch she has inherited. What she doesn't expect is the men here need a boss more than a whore. When Cameron Blake arrives on her ranch run by Darius McKinney, he knows he's found a home for him and for his son, Josh. What he never saw coming was someone murdering his boss and now he would be the one dealing with the beautiful Rose McKinney.

The cost of avenging the death of his sister was ten years in prison, but Blue Bowman willingly paid the price. Now he has one more score to settle: destroying the wealthy Montana rancher who abandoned his mother and shattered his family—his father, Gordon Campbell. Strange luck lands him a job at the massive Campbell spread—and Blue finds himself back in the saddle gentling horses, especially one wild, magnificent roan whose tortured soul mirrors his own. And the quiet strength and beauty of veterinarian Andie Lee Hart, a single mother with a troubled teenaged son, almost lets him forget the past. Soon Blue will have to make a choice…but will it be to satisfy the demons inside him, or trust his life to the power of love?
