Amelia: A Novel

<b>A WILD, DANGEROUS LOVE</b><br> <b> </b><br> Amelia Howard cherishes her desert country. The dazzling colors, white heat, and rough sensuality of west Texas stir her very soul. But there€s a serpent in her paradise: King Culhane. A towering sunburned cowboy with silver eyes that miss nothing, he€s a man she€s come to despise€"no matter how much she had worshiped him when she was fourteen.<br>  <br> As her father pushes her to secure a marriage proposal from King€s mild-mannered brother in order to marry into the Culhane dynasty, Amelia assumes the mask of a demure young lady, always correct and obedient. It€s a posture that King holds in contempt. Yet when she reveals the true force of her feelings, she unleashes a smoldering passion that cannot be denied. And everything€"propriety, filial duty, even love€"will be scorched in the wake of such all-consuming desire.
