Rawhide and Roses , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 400min
From the author ofBroken She's roses... Playing good sport to appease her best friend was one thing, but sophisticated Kim Martin was hardly equipped for a Colorado camping trip. Especially when their mountain guide was a rough-edged cowboy who was as untamed as the wilderness. His outdoors style might jump-start some women, but a strictly indoors woman like Kim found him...almost resistible. He's rough-and-ready rawhide... Thad Winchester's patience for city women was wearing as thin as the seat of his jeans. But there was something about Kim that was putting his hard-and-fast don't-touch rule to the test. The plucky blonde was just the woman to share his Flying W. Ranch. All Thad had to do was bring out the wildflower in the refined beauty and convince her that he was her man. Bar nothing. ungekürzt.
