title: A Long, Hot Summer
author: Devlin, Delilah
description: One shared past. One weekend to make things right -- and make it last forever.
  
  Sarah Colby has never quite managed to shake off the emotional scars her ex-husband left behind. Nor has she been able to shed the shame of the one indiscretion that still haunts her memories.
  
  When she asks the Triplehorn Ranch for help to move her cattle to an auction, the man they send has her working double-time to shore up the walls around her heart. He's older now, harder -- and hotter -- but he's the same Tommy Triplehorn she couldn't resist all those years ago.
  
  Tommy couldn't be happier that his brothers have settled down, but he's feeling a little smothered by all the domesticity. At the same time, carousing and drinking no longer appeal -- and he thinks he knows why. Sarah Colby.
  
  He's waited too long for her to get over being ashamed of what they shared. He's old enough to know what he wants. It's her, and he's going to use every second of their time together to dismantle her resistance. Even if he has to call in a little backup.
  
  Warning: A cowboy on a mission to prove to the woman he loves that the only number that matters is the number of fantasies he's willing to fulfill -- even if it means sharing her for a night.
