description: COOL FRENCH BEAUTY
  Genevieve Marie du Pres wondered why she had ever left behind civilized New Orleans for this barbaric California mining town where men auctioned off their "fiancees" to the highest bidder! Finding herself on the auction block, she was never so glad to see anyone as Rio Jackson, the rugged wagon train scout who'd ignored her on the long journey across the mountains. Rio might need a lesson in how to treat a lady, but he sure knew how to rescue one. Taking her into his arms and holding the lusty bidders at bay with his gun, he escaped with her into the safety of the dark night. And it was under the cover of night that Genevieve would show this hot-headed cowboy the pleasures and desires of a real woman...
  
  HOT-HEADED COWBOY
  It figured that the prickly French beauty who had made Rio's life miserable on the trail West had landed herself in one holy mess. The prettier they were, the bigger the trouble, and Genevieve's long dark hair, sweetly curved figure, and saucy French accent guaranteed that there'd be a passel of angry men on their trail in no time. He'd get this lovely lady to safety, and then show her just what kind of gentleman he really as as he lay bare her womanly curves, pulled her golden-skinned body close to his, and introduced her to the rapture of his long, lingering lovemaking!
