Southern Nights — Susan Weldon

SHE WANTED NO MAN...
Leah Stanton dreamed that Riverwynd would one day be hers. All she had to do was show her ailing uncle that she could run his Florida sugar plantation better than any man. Her demure twin Rachel could flirt and entertain suitors, but Leah's independent spirit rebelled against convention .. . until she met a handsome ex-soldier who swore to take what she never wanted to give .. .

HE NEEDED NO WOMAN...
A saber wound had ended Trevor Prescott's military career and his engagement to a southern belle. Now, wounded in body and spirit, he reluctantly journeyed to Florida's Manatee settlement to manage an old friend's faltering estate. Meeting provocative Leah Stanton was like igniting a smoldering flame . . . awakening a passion for a woman who'd vowed never to surrender her love.

UNTIL...
Leah and Trevor soon found themselves swept into a world of rebellious slaves and warring Seminole Indians . . . a world where the nights were dark and dangerous . . . and as hot as their fiery love.
