To love a stranger

MARRIAGE ON THE RUN Wild and rowdy Pierce Delaney and his two brothers are notorious throughout Dry Gulch, Montana, for attracting all sorts of trouble. Now a misunderstanding has left Pierce with a bullet in his back, forcing him to take refuge in Zoey Fuller's root cellar. And the spirited, headstrong lady is threatening to turn him over to the vigilante mob that's hot on his heels unless Pierce agrees to a short-term marriage. LOVE ON THE MEND Zoey doesn't trust Pierce Delaney--she doesn't even know him. Nevertheless, she needs a husband to help her foil the schemes of a thieving banker who wants her ranch. But as the handsome, wounded stranger heals under her gentle care, Zoey begins to see the true mettle of the man--his strength, his charm...and his masculine fire that sets her blood racing at a fever's pitch. Though he has sworn to leave after fulfilling his promise, his hot kisses say he burns for her as well--and they've freed a passion in two guarded hearts that could keep Zoey in Pierce's loving arms forever.
