Title: A Rose In Winter
Description: [From Fictiondb]
At sixteen, Lady Solange had pledged her love to Damon Wolf, had dreamed they would be together forever.
But when her ruthless father threatened Damon's life unless she agreed to marry another, Solange did the only thing she could: she scorned her true love and sent him away. . . never imagining the fate that awaited her, never knowing that one day her destiny would be entwined with Damon's once more.
--
For nine long years, Solange has lived a nightmare, wed to a wealthy lord whose handsome face hides a soul of darkest evil. Yet now, just as she is poised to finally make good her escape, Damon suddenly appears at the castle gate. Gone is the gentle hero of her childhood, replaced by a fiercely attractive, thunderously angry knight, who makes it clear he has never forgiven her betrayal. Convincing Damon to escort her to safety will take all Solange's ingenuity--but the real challenge lies in breaching the walls that Damon has built between them, to win back his trust. . . and his hardened heart.

HOME ON THE RANGE
The phone call was a lark -- a spontaneous whim. But when Lily Brownfield called about the ad in the Oklahoma newspaper and was told that the job was hers, the crazy idea became a reality. The owner of the Longren Ranch needed a cook for a cattle roundup. And Lily needed to leave Los Angeles behind -- along with the heartbreak of the fiance and the job she'd lost when her face was scarred in a car accident.
--
From her first glimpse of Case Longren, a giant of a man in a black Stetson standing tall beneath the hot prairie sun, Lily realized there would be no hiding from his penetrating blue eyes. With his handsome face and teasing smile, Case was a man to be avoided at all costs.
--
At first, Case didn't understand why a pretty blonde with sweet red lips would want to cook for two dozen dusty ranch hands. Then he noticed how Lily, like a skittish colt, shied away from people. This lady had come to his ranch to hide. And though he longed to keep her by his side, Case vowed to help her find the courage to face the world once again.

As she peered over the edge of the gallery, Sabrina Cameron trembled at the sight of the sun-bronzed giant striding into view.

Morgan MacDonnell, the boy, had been her tormentor. Now it looked as if Morgan, the man, would prove infinitely more dangerous....
A DEFIANT BEAUTY...
Though hatred divided their clans, Morgan MacDonnell had come to Cameron Glen hoping for a truce... only to find that by evening's end the only way to avert bloodshed between the two families was for him to marry his enemy's daughter. But even as Morgan spirited Sabrina away to his rugged fortress, his battle would not be won. For this delicate rose of a girl would put up a bold fight ... and the spoils of victory would be nothing less than a heathen MacDonnell's heart.
