Cowboy at Midnight — Ann Major

"You won't find a mule more stubborn than me, especially when it comes to women."
-- Rancher Steven Fortune

With his prosperous ranch and independence, Steven considers himself a lucky man. He's smart enough to stay far away from love -- he's learned it only brings heartache. But then he meets events planner Amy Burke-Sinclair, who has beauty and the brains to match -- and is just as cautious as he is. Despite that, she seduces him into a night of passion that leaves him stunned, and ready to admit that perhaps he doesn't have all the answers.

When they have to work together on a function honoring patriarch Ryan Fortune, Steven finds himself falling even harder. He soon changes his mind about the benefits of love and commitment...but will Amy change hers?
