Jesse's Challenge — Nicole Austin

A few stolen intimate moments shared with a nameless beauty present a challenge no cowboy can resist.

Jesse Powers feels like a fish out of water when he leaves the ranch and jumps feet first into the shark infested waters of big business wheelers and dealers. Homesickness rides the cowboy hard until a fiery uptown girl captures his interest and lassos his heart.

Kate Brooks has a plan she's reluctant to deviate from. A strategy for climbing the ranks as a graphic artist and starting her own company. She certainly can't afford to let her rigid control slip and give into the distraction presented by her hunky, peeping tom neighbor -- no matter how great the temptation.

They both like to be in control, sharing only one common ground -- sex. Kate's willing to submit to the right man in the bedroom, and Jesse just may be that man. Chasing their dreams will put more than miles between these lovers. The gaping distance is filled with challenges and hurdles they'll have to conquer to find true happiness.
