The Princess of Coldwater Flats — Nancy Bush

Everyone knew that Sammy Jo Whalen was looking for a husband. How else would she save her mortgaged-to-the-hilt ranch? But who would marry the sharp-tongue owner of the Triple-R? No man in his right mind, for sure. Sammy Jo might be one of the finest looking women in the county, but she was hard-headed, ornery, and an overall a pain in the ass. Unless she changed her ways, and soon, she was going to lose that ranch and all the blood, sweat and tears she'd put into it.
Then Cooper Ryan came to town and it looked like the long, tall stranger with the lazy smile had a serious hankering for Sammy Jo's ranch -- and maybe for Sammy Jo herself. Was he foolhardy, or sly as a fox? Maybe he was just what the princess of Coldwater Flats needed, or maybe he was about to flimflam her out of the Triple-R and her heart, too. Either way, sparks were about to fly and the good folk of Coldwater Flats decided to settle right down and enjoy the show.
