Sworn Off Women — Dale Ketcham

After an exhausting book tour, Ethan Warner wants nothing more than to spend the summer soaking up sun and reading bestsellers. He's rented the perfect place to do it-Sandy Heights, a two-acre estate on the North Fork of Long Island, eighty miles from his Manhattan penthouse. Desperately in need of a break from frenzied female fans, he's sworn off women. That is, until he meets a tantalizing woman at a nearby golf course, with a cute-as-punch body. Her playful razzing about his ineptness at the game leaves him begging for more. Tara Brooks realizes too late, after flirting outrageously with Ethan, that he's her tenant for the season. Pure country herself, she's taken by his bizarre humor and cosmic view on life, but he's just passing through. And she knows that's the worst kind of man to fall in love with.

Dale Ketcham lives on Long Island, New York, with her husband Arne. Dale splits her time between writing and raising guide dogs for the local Guide Dog Foundation.
