  Membership in this family has its privileges... and its price. But what a fortune can't buy, a true-bred Texas love is sure to bring!
  
  THE DECOY
  
  Zane Fortune loved a conquest -- in business or in bed. But some matchmaking Fortunes felt that the tycoon should cast off his playboy coat of arms. So he used cold, hard cash to entice Gwen Hutton to pose as his lady love. Gorgeous, warmhearted Gwen was no threat to Zane's bachelorhood, for she was a mother. Of THREE. And he'd rather lose his jaw-dropping inheritance down a Texas sinkhole than become a surrogate father. But when the ruse is over, Zane felt an undeniable yearning for his pretend fiancee... AND her wonderful children. Could Gwen be the one woman this quintessential bachelor would take into his arms -- and his heart?
