title: Deirdre's True Desire
author: McCorkle, Heather
description: The moment she arrives in California, Deirdre falls in love with the untamed land that will become the Widows' Winery. Despite no one in all of Sonoma county being willing to sell them materials or labor, she is determined to find a way to build their homes and the winery. She must, for if she doesn't meet the land improvement deadline, they'll lose their land and their dream. This pursuit keeps her in the company of Kin O'Leary, a handsome business man full of innovative ideas. But, considering how she married for money the first time-as her family dictated-she convinces herself she will only find true love in a man of lesser means.
  
  Dylan, a strapping young cattle hand who is helping build her home soon catches her eye as well. Her plans for an unconventional romance become derailed when she is forced to spend more time with Kin during the planning of her closest friend's wedding. Something more than base attractive begins to build in her for him, making her resist all the stronger. It doesn't help that Dylan has a rugged dangerous side to him that draws her deeper into a world of secrets. With the cattle baron Ainsworth thwarting her every attempt at building the Widows' Winery, Deirdre's choice in men may prove their downfall, or their salvation.
