Tall, Dark, Texas Ranger — Patricia Thayer

Big secrets in a small town...

Noah Cooper is in Kerry Springs to do a job, and as a Texas Ranger, he can't afford distraction. A pity, then, that at the center of the mystery is irresistible Lilly Perry....

Independent Lilly's determined to stay a single mom, so having a gorgeous lodger such as Noah Cooper in her house is hardly ideal. He may be amazing with her kids, but Lilly can't stop thinking about kissing him! Wanting is one thing...but with all the secrets that lie between them, can either of them ever really trust the other?
