TAMING CLINT WESTMORELAND
In name only?
The moment former Texas Ranger Clint Westmoreland learns that he is still married, he sets the limits for his wife’s stay at his exclusive horse ranch. But when she arrives, Clint’s boundaries began to blur. He and Alyssa Barkley have thirty days to untangle the legal knot that bound them together during an undercover assignment years before. But this sexy, curvaceous Alyssa is different from the mousy, awestruck rookie agent he remembers. And now her every move has him wondering what it would be like if he really was her man.…
COLE’S RED-HOT PURSUIT
Cole Westmoreland always gets what he wants!
What the former Texas Ranger wants is sultry Patrina Forman. But Patrina is dead set against falling for a man with a no-strings-attached attitude, and there is no way she is going to fall into bed with a lawman! Then a Montana blizzard changes everything. Trapped together for three sinfully delicious nights, Cole soon has Patrina singing a different tune thanks to his personal brand of red-hot seduction. But what will happen once the snow begins to thaw?

CONTENTS
COLE’S RED-HOT PURSUIT
Dear Reader,
Little did I know that when I first introduced the Westmoreland family, they would become hugely popular amongst readers. Originally the Westmoreland family series was intended to be just six books, Delaney and her five brothers—Dare, Thorn, Stone, Storm and Chase. Later I wanted my readers to meet their cousins—Jared, Spencer, Durango, Ian, Quade and Reggie. Finally, there were Uncle Corey’s triplets—Clint, Cole and Casey.
What began as a six-book series blossomed into a thirty-book series when I included The Denver Westmorelands. I was very happy when Harlequin Kimani responded to my readers’ requests that the earlier books be reprinted. And I’m even happier that the reissues are in a great two-in-one format.
Memories for Eternity includes Taming Clint Westmoreland and Cole’s Red-Hot Pursuit. These are two Westmoreland classics and are books twelve and thirteen in The Westmorelands series. Clint and Cole Westmoreland, part of a set of triplets, are reluctant bachelors. However, when they meet Alyssa Bartley and Patrina Foreman, respectively, they take another look at their single status and decide that handing in their players’ cards may not be a bad thing.
I hope you enjoy reading these special romance stories as much as I enjoyed writing them.
Happy reading!

To the love of my life, Gerald Jackson, Sr. Happy 40th Anniversary. You’re still the one!
But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded!

Clint Westmoreland glanced around the airport and silently cursed. It was the middle of the day, he had a ton of work to do back at his ranch and here he stood waiting to meet a wife he hadn’t known he’d had until a few days ago.
His chest tightened as he inwardly fumed, recalling the contents of the letter he’d received from the Texas State Bureau of Investigations. He’d learned from the letter that when he’d gotten married while working on an undercover sting operation five years ago as a Texas Ranger, the marriage had never been nullified by the agency. That meant that he and Alyssa Barkley, the woman who had been his female partner, were still legally married.
The thought of being married, legally or otherwise, sent a chill down his spine, and the sooner he and Alyssa could meet and get the marriage annulled the better. She had received a similar letter and a few days ago they had spoken on the phone. She, too, was upset about the bureau’s monumental screwup and had agreed to fly to Austin to get the matter resolved immediately.
He glanced at his watch thinking time was being wasted. It was the first of February and he had a shipment of wild horses due any day and needed to get things ready at the ranch for their arrival.
When he had announced at his cousin Ian’s wedding last June that he would be leaving the Rangers after ten years, his cousin Durango and his brother-in-law, McKinnon Quinn, had invited him to join their Montana-based, million-dollar horse-breeding business. They wanted him to expand their company into Texas. Clint would run the Texas operations and become a partner in the business. His main focus would СКАЧАТЬ
