Once Upon a Cowboy — Day Leclaire

--- Originally published in 1994 as "Once a Cowboy"


Cami "Tex" Greenbush is 100% pure Texan, despite growing up in Virginia. Cowboying is in her blood. All she needs is one chance to prove it.
Holt Winston desperately needs a decent wrangler for his working Colorado dude ranch, and Tex Greenbush's resume seems perfect.

The instant Cami "Tex" Greenbush arrives at Holt's ranch, wearing a pink feathered Stetson and fringe hanging from every seam, he fires her on the spot. Unfortunately, they've agreed to a two-week trial and a cowboy -- a real cowboy -- is always true to his horse, his woman, and his word.

While Cami spends her days roping the ranch dog more often than the cows and dragging Holt through the mud, her sky-blue eyes and itty-bitty freckles have him kissing her as often as he wants to strangle her.

Maybe that's because he doesn't need a wrangler... He wants a wife.
