The Maverick — Jan Hudson

Cassidy Outlaw left her high-powered legal job -- and the unscrupulous lawyer fiancé who broke her heart -- to return to Texas. Here, life is simpler and the people more authentic. Managing her family's Chili Witches Café and protecting the charm of old Austin's landmarks keeps her too busy to care about spending time with Griff Mitchell, the new hottie in town with the Paul Newman blue eyes.

When Cass literally stumbles over him on the jogging trail, Griff falls for her in turn -- hard. Too bad she's got a problem with big New York City lawyers...because he's here to convince her family to sell their historic property. No one told him Cass was the kind of woman who could stand up to any man -- a maverick who could break his heart. Will she forgive him when she discovers his secret?
