Kane and Mabel — Sharon De Vita

ABLE BUT UNWILLING

Kati Ryan was one stubborn woman. Her diner, Mabel's, was her pride and joy. So, when Lucas Kane walked in and declared himself her new partner, she readied herself for battle. Okay, so the man was big, broad and deeply bronzed -- easily the most attractive man she'd ever seen -- this was still her diner!

Luke knew Kati thought he was an interloper, but half of Mabel's was legally his. After years of heading a construction company, he wanted a change of pace. He was staying, and he'd prove to Kati that they were both meant to fulfill the words tattooed on his arm: Born To Raise Kane!
