- "A Woman With A Will Miss Lillian Primm is beyond weary of polishing the manners of Boston's young ladies, so when she inherits half ownership of a "hotel" in Fort Floppett, Texas, she eagerly heads out West--only to discover that The Texas Lily is no less than a house of ill repute! A Man With A Plan Bradley O'Neal doesn't intend to change a thing about The Texas Lily, least of all the lovely ladies who keep customers coming back for more. It won't be the first time he turns on the charm to get his way--and discovering what lies behind Miss Primm's proper facade is a game too tempting to pass up. . . A Match Made In The Wild West Now, as the straitlaced schoolmarm faces off against the shrewdest gambler in the Lonestar State, let the winner take all. . . "Another wonderful battle-of-the-sexes novel. . .a most enjoyable read."--Booklist (starred review) on To Tempt a Texan."@en
