Marrying Jake — Beverly Bird

HE COULD NEVER BE A HUSBAND
Policeman Jake Wallace had a jaded heart--and he'd vowed no woman would snag it. Then he began the kidnapping investigation--and met Katya Essler, a gentle beauty who awakened his lonely soul ....

THE WEDDING RING
Wrapped in the warmth of family tradition, three couples say "I do!"
