For the Thrill — Janis Reams Hudson

A GENUINE COWBOY

The minute he walked into the Corner Cafe, Maggie Randolph knew he was a cowboy. From the white hat to the big silver trophy buckle to the pair of scuffed ropers, this raven-haired man was the real thing - a bull rider from the rodeo. Maggie considered herself an expert on the subject, since she'd lost her husband, the love of her life, to a rampaging bull six years ago.

When Alex Dillon caught sight of the green-eyed waitress in the Corner Cafe, he began to wonder if there might be some advantages to being stuck here in Deep Fork, Oklahoma. Since a shoulder injury had put him out of the rodeo for the next few weeks, Alex had agreed to manage his cousin's feed store in this dusty, quiet town.

Friends warned him to steer clear of Maggie. She was a woman who believed in home, hearth, and marriage. She would never let herself get tangled up with another bull rider. But Alex couldn't stop thinking of Maggie, a dream of a woman with fiery red hair and deep green eyes. She made him feel heady, hot ...alive. Somehow, Alex Dillon was going to prove that he was the one and only man for Maggie.
