The Rancher & Heart of Stone

the long version

The Rancher : "Diana Palmer brings her readers back to Branntville, Texas, with Cort Brannt's story. The heir to the Skylance Ranch empire has women gallop into his life, but the handsome lone wolf sends them just as quickly on their way ... until a pretty, vivacious neighbor appears on the range. Has the most eligible bachelor in Branntville met his match?"--Back cover. Heart of stone: "Boone Sinclair is the ultimate Long, Tall Texan - reticent, noble and blessed with a Texas-size stubbornness! Can lovely Keely Welsh convince him that she's no longer a girl in need of protection, but a woman out to win his heart?"--Back cover.
