A romantic hardened by reality . . . Evelyn Lancaster turned her back on her love for ranch hand Jesse Greenwood when she was sixteen to pursue a career and marry into wealth that could save her father's struggling ranch. Now twenty-three, she works hard to keep the property afloat, but no suitor has stirred her heart the way Jesse did. After her father falls ill, she needs all the help she can get to keep the ranch running. A cowboy returning to what he left behind . . . After making his fortune, a newly wealthy Jesse has returned home to see his younger sister married. Still smarting from Evelyn's rejection, he finds the tables have turned, and now only his investment could save the ranch that he vowed to never step foot on again. When he agrees to help her salvage her family legacy, they must overcome their pride and painful past to work together. As long-held emotions rekindle, Jesse pretends indifference, only to admit his true feelings in an unsigned letter left on Evelyn's porch. Evelyn finds the missive and writes back, beginning a furtive correspondence. She dares to hope her mystery admirer is Jesse, but then another man comes forward to claim the letters as his own. Will one last letter give them the courage to say yes to love on the wild Texas plains? Sensuality Level: Behind Closed Doors
