Antonie Ramirez could ride and shoot as well as any man-and better than most. Now, the headstrong beauty had come to Texas to honor her father's last words: find the cattle rancher named Royal Bancroft and repay him for saving lives long ago. Royal Bancroft didn't know who was behind the outlaws trying to drive him off his land, but he would fight to the death rather than lose it. Yet with his sister and brother kidnapped, he felt defeat run through him like a chill wind.until a girl with cornsilk hair and a steady gunhand rode into his life. Antonie was wild, hard, and hurting inside, and Royal knew from the moment he saw her that, if he tried to tame her, he'd break her spirit. Instead, he would let her ride with him as an equal partner, fight beside him for a future, and come to him as a woman on fire for blazing love..

AN INTRUIGING READ,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Taste Of Fire (Paperback)
Antonie Ramirez is an orphaned white woman raised by a legendary mexican bandit, Juan Ramirez. She has been taught to best any man not only with her weapons but with her wit. The love between adopted daughter and father is extraordinary. When she was still young, she and her father met Royal Bancroft, who saves them from a bullet. Juan vows to return the favor. Years later, on his deathbed, Juan asks Antonie to help Royal defend his ranch against an unknown foe. It is up to her fulfill his vow. She is immediately attracted to Royal, but although she falls in love with him, she knows she will never be what his world demands, a lady.Royal Bancroft, a man hardened by war but determined to live in peace on his ranch, has never forgotten the wild young Antoine. Now that she is a woman grown, he can't stop himself from wanting her. Unfortunately, she was raised by a bandit, outside of the rules of polite society. He is torn between his desire for her and his yearning for a respectable wife. Royal and Antoine, no matter how much they try not to, surrender to their unspoken love and spark an unquenchable fire. When Antoine becomes pregnant, they marry. Their fears and doubts leads to many misunderstandings between them, but they're determined to make their marriage work. Their future is threatened, however, by an evil foe determined to destroy them both. Can Antonie and Royal survive this threat? Will they be able to finally reveal their love for one another? A TASTE OF FIRE is a story filled with tension, suspense, passion and love. It is an interesting read that you will enjoy.

ONE OF THE BEST,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Taste Of Fire (Paperback)
I love Hannah Howell. I go to used book stores just to hunt up old books by this gifted writer. She writes the best Highland stories that are funny,romantic and erotic. Every now and then she writes a western like " A taste of fire " that kept me "hooked" all the way to the end. I have read every book that Ms. Howell has written and loved all of them. I don't understand why there aren't more raved reviews for her work. Believe me, you won't be disappointed.
