Romance in the Badlands Collection

Wild at Heart

Dime novelist Mariah resents Adam McFarland claiming her facts about the West are wrong. At his invitation, she

heads to his ranch in North Dakota. But when her train is robbed, and a man is shot trying to help her, she makes sure he gets home. When he turns out to be the very man she came to visit, she is shocked into silence about her identity.

As she falls for the troubled cowboy who has his own secrets, will the truth ruin their blossoming romance?

Outlaw Heart

When Deputy Marshal Brett Wickham's younger brother is killed in a bank robbery, he goes after the gang

responsible. However, a bear attack lands him badly wounded in the gang's hideout, with Lottie Salinger nursing him. The woman seems too kind and caring to be an outlaw, but the evidence against her is strong. When Brett starts to

care for her, he wonders if he can still do his job. Will justice prevail or will love win out?

Straight for the Heart

When the mail-order bride his grandmother secretly ordered for him doesn't arrive, Quinn McFarland is

relieved. But the only way to keep her from ordering another one is to find his own wife-and fast. When the sheriff suggests Quinn marry the gal in his jail, he balks. Marriage to Sarah could solve Quinn's need for a wife and fix Sarah's

problems-but dare he marry an outlaw?
