Hallie raised a brow in question.
“Come.” Cooper gestured and led her outside the door with one hand on her upper arm. “There are the other men, Hallie. Once they know you’re alone at night... ”
She saw the picture. Remembering the way they’d ogled her at the trading post with lecherous eyes, she didn’t need any more convincing. “I’ll take a few things and stay with Chumani.” The warmth of his hand burned through her sleeve. “Thank you,” she said. “You always think of my safety.”
His eyes dropped to her mouth, and she caught her breath at the heat she read in their depths. His other hand raised her face to his.
Hallie’s heart set up a flutter. “What—?”
“You could talk a man blind, Hallie.”
Her eyes widened and his face lowered.
“I don’t think—”
“I don’t care if you think or not. Just don’t talk....”
Dear Reader,
Since her outstanding debut in our 1994 March Madness promotion of brand-new authors, Cheryl StJohn has been delighting readers with her unique brand of historical romance. This month’s story, Badlands Bride, is about a newspaper reporter who goes west pretending to be a mail-order bride, only to find herself stranded in the Dakotas for one long cold winter. We hope you enjoy it.
Margaret Moore’s new medieval novel, The Baron’s Quest, is the captivating story of a rough-edged Saxon who falls in love with the refined gentlewoman whom he has inherited as part of his new holdings. Pearl, from Ruth Langan, is the next in her new Western series, THE JEWELS OF TEXAS, featuring four sisters who are brought together by their father’s murder.
Liz Ireland rounds out the list with Millie and the Fugitive, a lighthearted Western about a spoiled rich girl and an innocent man on the run.
We hope you’ll keep a lookout for all four titles wherever Harlequin Historicals are sold.
Sincerely,
Tracy Farrell
Senior Editor
