Hotheaded With the way she stood up to men, Temperance Tyler had more than earned the nickname "Temper." A widow embittered by a loveless marriage, she had left the gambling halls of Texas, hoping for better luck as a cook at Buckingham Ranch. The last thing she needed was strong-willed half-breed Brit Hand taking over the ranch. Temper was afraid of no man—and she had to remind herself that no matter how much he made her blood boil or her body ache with desire, he was just another man. Head Over Heels Half-Comanche and the son of an English earl, Harvard-educated Brit Hand could break wild horses while talking to them in four languages. He was a man with temperate needs—and the flame-haired temptress running his new-found household was anything but temperate. Yet from the moment they met, he found her strangely arousing, with the defiant power to unlock his wild, passionate side, and the hot temper to tame his restless heart.

Don’t get me wrong...I love my husband...but I’ve spent a lifetime caught in a passionate affair. My lover taunts, teases, enrages, thrills, amuses, and ultimately satisfies. His name? Language. Readers, you know what I’m talking about. Whether written, spoken, or sung, words entice me as no other human invention could ever do. Okay, music is a close second; when you put the two together, the result is sublime. Like most writers, I came to this devilish profession through a love of reading. I’ve worked as a crime reporter, teacher, librarian - challenges all. They culminated in the creation of stories of my own, both contemporary and historical. My wish is that you let them seduce you I live in San Antonio with my husband, dote on five grandsons, and travel whenever and wherever I can. My photo was taken on the dock in Liverpool, England, in front of a modern sculpture of a “lamb-banana,” the artist’s whimsical cross between a lamb and a banana. This was shortly before an emotional trip to the boyhood homes of John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
