description: THE HOMBRE…
  
  Mark first saw Elena strolling along the wharf -- with an overly amorous suitor in hot pursuit. Before he knew it, Mark had rescued the sultry beauty…only to have his chivalry rewarded with a resounding slap! Although the flashing-eyed hellcat was a handful for any man, Mark swore he'd have Elena for himself -- even if he had to fight off every male in the valley.
  
  …AND THE HELLION
  
  Elena knew she wasn't the only woman captivated by Mark's swarthy good looks and silvery tongue. She also knew that the son of one of California's wealthiest vintners would never marry a humble fisherman's daughter. Things like that just don't happen.
  
  But even in real life, impossible dreams sometimes come true…And when tender words and fiery kisses flame into a passion that binds two yearning hearts, love can't be very far behind!
