Doubting himself and longing for a change of pace, he takes a low-paying position at the Rocking Z guest ranch, though he expects nature up close and personal won\u2019t hold a candle to his exciting Paris lifestyle.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When born-and-bred cattle rancher Colby Zane spots a newcomer being pawed at by a passel of horny cowboys at Aspen\u2019s Club Rawhide, he rushes in, throws the guy over his shoulder, and rescues him. Sober, Riley Emerson is sweet and sexy, but not interested in more than a one-night stand. Still, Colby\u2019s over the moon when Riley later arrives as the new cook on his family\u2019s ranch.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>But all\u2019s not well at the Rocking Z. Unsurmountable financial problems force them to seek a cash infusion from outside investor Fitz Wellington. Fitz is hot for Colby, and he won\u2019t sign on the dotted line without some very personal incentives. The future of the ranch is at stake, and Colby\u2019s just that desperate, but saving the Z might mean losing Riley.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Buy Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dreamspinnerpress.com\/store\/product_info.php?products_id=5444&amp;cPath=55_190\">Dreamspinner Press<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/amz-wes\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/s\/em-lynley?store=allproducts&amp;keyword=em+lynley\">Barnes and Noble<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/are-wes\">All Romance eBooks<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It just released on Wednesday, and Spaghetti Western is already getting some wonderful reviews and comments from readers!
