Untamed - Paperback

by Lisa Rayne (Author)

A fun and adventurous historical romance featuring the classic, enigmatic cowboy of the Old West with vibes of the "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" meets "Lawmen: Bass Reeves".

Proper eastern lady Mary Catherine Templeton is on the verge of being destitute when she inherits a saloon out west. She's determined to take her bachelor's degree and make a success of the struggling liquor joint, even after her innocent sensibilities are shocked to discover its other sinful commodity.

All burnt-out bounty hunter Blaaze Lassiter wants is to retire in a quiet, uneventful town, catch up on his reading, and try a little whittling. He thought he'd found the perfect place to abandon his live-by-the-gun ways. But ever since that she-devil changed the rules for the amenities in her establishment, the townsmen have started a ruckus detrimental to his peaceful existence.

When the backlash against Mary Catherine turns life-threatening, Blaaze feels duty-bound to strap on his guns again to protect the woman who's got his blood riled in more ways than one. And once he puts down this insurrection, he's gonna take up a new leisure activity-one that involves giving the prissy college graduate a whole different kind of education.

"I couldn't put this one down! It's a breathtaking romance with the heart of an old Western. Exhilarating, action-filled, and intensely beautiful. I loved every page." Michelle McLean, USA Today bestselling author
