Luring Jesse

by Sylvie Kaye

Lynda Mason inherits a section of a mountain in the Black Hills of South Dakota from her aunt. Wealthy rancher Jesse James Talbot claims to own the whole mountain and he intends to keep it that way. Unable to get by the reclusive rancher's barbed wire fences and locked gates, Lynda develops a ruse. To lure Jesse down from his Black Hills, Lynda moves into a plush penthouse at the exclusive Talbot Arms and poses as his wife. The ruse works. When Jesse swaggers into her party at the penthouse, Lynda plans to get him alone, inform him of her claim, and give him every opportunity to buy her out.What she doesn't plan on is being quite so alone with the hunk in boots. A forest fire results in a wild helicopter ride out to his mountain ranch. Soon sparks fly that have nothing to do with the fire raging on the mountain.
