The Carradine Brand

the long version

The rancher's daughter and the cattle king Curt Carradine is one of the biggest landowners in Australia. Smart, tough, extraordinarily handsome. Other men admire him. Women fall in love with him. Rachael Munro is no exception. As a teenager, she'd loved him with all the intensity of youth. She still loves him, but as a grown woman now. Curt still regards her as a child, though--especially since her father's recent death.... Worse, he seems more than a little interested in acquiring Miriwin, the Munro ranch. And in acquiring her glamorous stepmother, Sonia, as his wife. A double betrayal, to Rachael's way of thinking. She's already lost her heart. Is her land next?
