A Taste of Honey — Jane Gentry

WHAT WILL PEOPLE SAY?

Susannah Reid was content with her life...until Jefferson Cody hit town. She'd heard the worst about this rebel -- he was no gentleman and certainly wouldn't respect a lady. Susannah knew better than to let good old-fashioned lust be mistaken for love. After all, what would the neighbors think? But she found it hard to resist this blue-eyed stranger.

Jefferson knew his reputation made her wary, but he wasn't about to give her up just because a few gossips thought "Widow Reid" should spend her life in mourning. It was time for Susannah to start thinking not only about her needs -- but about Jefferson's as well!
