Editorial Reviews

Product Description
When half-breed Jess Robbins rides into Cheyenne to chase down a gang of cattle thieves, he is sure of three things: The townsfolk will openly scorn him; the women will secretly want him; and the rustlers will definitely fear him. What he doesn't count on is a flame-haired spitfire named Lissa Jacobson, who has her own manhunt in mind. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot, Slizzling, and Suspenseful!, September 14, 2000

By A Customer

This book starts out with Melissa Jacobson (Lissa) a cattle baron's daughter having an attraction to Jesse Robbins (Jess) a half breed part greaser gunman that her father has hired to take care of rustlers. Soon Lissa catches Jess's attention and their relationship begins. They're many people and obstacles the couple has to overcome to be together. The racism and bigotry of Lissa's family and "friends" causes problems from the beginning. But there are a few true friends that help along the way after they are won over by the love the couple shares. The love scenes alone are worth the read! Shirl Henke has written a real winner.

5.0 out of 5 stars SENSUAL LOVE SCENES AND EVERLASTING LOVE, February 29, 2004

By A Customer

In my opinion this was the best book that Shirl Henke ever wrote! Lissa & Jess were explosive together. Their love scenes have you frantically turning the page wanting more! But what excited me the most was Lissa's determination to have Jess at all cost... even being labeled "a fallen woman" because of her love for him. Trials after trials mostly because of Jess stubborness eluded this couple. But love conquered all in the end. It's a buy and keeper!
