Douglas Clayborne will never turn his back on anyone in need, and everyone in Blue Belle knows it. Time and again, his intolerance of cruelty of any kind has made him a champion of the defenseless...but his quiet strength faces its ultimate battle when he meets Isabel Grant. He arrives at her ranch to pick up the magnificant Arabian stallion he's purchased, but he cannot leave the vulnerable woman behind when he discovers the danger that threatens her. Convincing the stubborn, strong-willed beauty that she needs him is another matter. Douglas can stop the men from stealing her ranch and her horses, but he cannot stop Isabel Grant from stealing his heart.
One of my favorite stories. Part of the "For the Roses" series.

One of the "Clayborne" brothers of Blue Bell, Montana, Travis was asked by Mama Rose to escort a mail-order bride to her groom. A good read.
Excellent!!! One of a series-One White Rose, One Pink Rose, One Red Rose-All are excellent!
The second follow-up story with Douglas Clayborne. The whole series is a great romantic read.

The second in the Clayborne brothers trilogy centers on Douglas Clayborne. His trip is supposed to be a simple business transaction, but turns into something much more.
Douglas is sent to pick up an Arabian stallion from a young rancher, but when he arrives, he finds a young and very pregnant widow pointing a gun at his chest. He isn't too concerned until Isabel goes into labor and he is forced to deliver her premature son, Parker. The baby has a good chance of survival, but only as long as Douglas can protect them from a greedy neighbor.
Douglas realizes he is falling in love with Isabel and that he feels a fierce protectiveness for her and the baby. With the help of his brothers and the town's doctor, he manages to make them safe; but how can he ever win her as his bride?
