Ruffan Reddy's Rules For the Ultimate Blind Date:

1. Don't crash your rig into a woman's car unless you really want to meet her.
2. Don't try to deal rationally with a woman driving a white car in a blinding snowstorm–especially if she's also dressed for a Texas picnic.
3. Don't make conversation as you both wait inside your cramped truck for help to arrive.
4. Do determine the size of her ring finger when you're still stranded on the side of the highway twenty–four interesting hours later….

THE KEEPERS OF TEXAS

TANGLIN' WITH A TEXAN

Ranch hand Rip Morris had quite the reputation although what he really knew about women wouldn't add up to a pile of hay. So who would have guessed a lovely socialite like Miss Lu Parsons had requested the pleasure of his company for her first roll in the proverbial haystack?

The taut–bodied Texan was all set to comply with the lady's wishes. But fate and Mother Nature seemed to be conspiring against them losing their virginity. Or maybe this was Rip's chance to lose his well–guarded heart to a woman whose body and soul were his for the taking .

THE KEEPERS OF TEXAS

BEAUTY'S BEASTLY CHALLENGE

She thought she'd been invited to the Keepers' Texas ranch to do her family a favour, but feisty redhead JoAnn Murray was beginning to sense a fix–up. Was she really there to tame cantankerous Andrew Parsons or to be asked to throw caution to the wind and marry the arrogant beast?

No little lady was gonna make him change his ways! Or so Andrew thought until he got a look at the beguiling beauty those blasted Keepers had sicked on him. With one pout of her pretty lips, Andrew's gruffness disappeared, replaced by a grim determination to make JoAnn see him as something other than a challenge and perhaps a potential groom?

Chancy Freedman had grown up on the Bar Q ranch.
