In the rugged solitude of the Wyoming wilderness he rode his young charge relentlessly, assigning Jonty all the hardest tasks on his horse ranch and making her life a torment. Then one stormy night Cord discovered that Jonty would never be a man, only the wildest, most willing woman he'd ever taken in his arms, the one woman who could claim his heart...
