title: The Truth about Tate
author: Pappano, Marilyn
description: A loyal son, loving brother and doting single dad, rugged rancher Tate Rawlins was as honest as an Oklahoma day was long. But when Alabama reporter Natalie Grant began investigating his family's secrets, Tate grudgingly adopted deception to protect his unconventional kin from scandal. He would impersonate his half brother -- a famous senator's hidden illegitimate son -- and stonewall the Southern writer into abandoning her expose.
  
  But Tate didn't reckon on how badly Natalie needed her story -- or how badly he would need her. The leggy redhead lassoed his libido, harnessed his heart, enchanted his motherless son...until Tate ached to make her his. But how could he promise Natalie forever while whispering sweet, loving lies?
