Gentleman Cowboy

This cowboy might just have the Midas touch-with her.

After successfully running yet another congressional campaign, Emerson Laurent is at loose ends. She's been the best in her field among Washington's political elite for nearly a decade, since the cataclysmic collapse of her father's company left her fending for herself just to survive, and she's desperate for a new challenge. Powerful men stopped being interesting a long time ago.

Gabriel North needs to stop thinking of his best friend's girl, the only one in recent memory to see him for the man he is and not the money beneath. That melting of the ice that has always kept him safe makes him vulnerable, and Gabriel doesn't do vulnerable, not even for pretty political hotshots who seem to match him at every turn.

But Emerson is so much more than she seems on the surface, and their connection goes much deeper than Gabriel could have ever realized. With their stolen week turning into something lasting and intense, Gabriel's left with the question of telling her the truth about what happened to her father's business all those years ago and risking losing her forever...or keeping the secret that could ultimately destroy them both.
