The Bounty Hunter and the Heiress
Carol Finch
Evangeline Hallowell has sworn not to rest until she finds the dirty swindler who conned her sister.So when Colorado's best bounty hunter, J. D. Raven, refuses to help, the determined heiress joins the trail as his "wife"–for better or for worse. . . .With enemies galore gunning for him, the last thing Raven needs is some stubborn, sass-mouthed hellcat landing them both in bigger trouble! But he soon finds keeping Eva safe is way easier than keeping himself from wanting her. . . .
“I like being married to you. It’s convenient.”
Eva lifted her chin rebelliously.
Raven barked a laugh. “Not as convenient as you might think if we continue to ride the stage. We’d have to sleep together to keep up appearances, sweetheart.”
Damn, she hadn’t thought that far ahead. Eva drew herself up to full stature. She couldn’t resist a challenge.
“I can endure sleeping together if you can, sweetheart,” she countered defiantly. “Turn around, please.”
“What for?”
“So I can retrieve the money I stuffed down my dress.”
Raven grinned scampishly and shook his head. “Being married and all, there’s no reason for me not to watch….”
