title: Deception's Fire
author: Donovan, Sandra
description: ILLUSION'S ECSTASY
  Maeve Devlin suppressed a gasp at her own audacity. She couldn't join the wagon train without a husband and Claude Langley couldn't join without a wagon so she'd actually asked the handsome gambler to travel with her and let her share his name... at least for the journey west. She tried to convince herself that their union would be no more than a carefully presented charade, but when he looked into her very soul with those piercing blue eyes and set her flesh afire with his tempting touch, she knew she'd soon savor his seductive embrace!
  
  REALITY'S RAPTURE
  Claude couldn't believe his luck. A wagon, a way west, and a willing wench all at once! For no matter how prettily Maeve worded her proposition, he could read between the lines. The auburn-haired innocent needed more than his name--she needed to bask in the heat of his most intimate caress, thrill to the searing kisses he'd trace on her ivory skin. And he swore that before their journey was done, his bewitching beauty would surrender to the ecstasy that awaited them in the glorious blaze of Deception's Fire
