Two favorite Lonetree stories from popular author Kathie DeNosky Lonetree Ranchers: Brant When Brant found a lovely lady knocking on his hotel balcony door, he was intrigued. And when he discovered that Annie Devereaux was hiding from a spurned suitor, his code of honor demanded that he help her. But once he whisked her away to his ranch for safekeeping, he was beset with incomprehensible yearnings. For Annie affected him like no other woman ever had. And the more time Brant spent with the innocent young woman, the more he realized that, though he mustn't touch Annie, he couldn't let her go.... Lonetree Ranchers: Morgan Morgan didn't know a thing about delivering babies, but when he came across a stranded woman in labor, he knew he was her only hope. Soon he was rolling up his shirtsleeves and helping to bring Samantha Peterson's precious child into the world. And when the rugged rancher discovered that single mother Samantha and her brand-new son needed a place to stay, he felt duty-bound to offer his home. Although he had given up on ever being a husband or father, Samantha evoked Morgan's every masculine instinct--to protect, defend...and possess?
