title: Inherited Sins
author: Kerr, Mary
description: Wealthy and powerful rancher Rennie Simon rescues orphaned teenager Sophie Riley, when he claims the poker pot holding the deed to her land on her behalf, and takes her into his home for her protection. Sophie unearths her birth certificate showing she is not who she believed herself to be. She is no orphan, is older than she thought and has a shaded beginning. When Rennie learns her true age, he wants to lay claim to the fiery red head, but his past makes him push her away; for her own good. Sophie realizes he can never love her because of who he is, but not before she repeats the mistake from her own past.
