"I leave all my worldy goods to my worthless daughters, but they got to earn it. If you three want an acre of my ranch, you got to drive a herd of longhorns to Abilene, Kansas. If you fail, then my fourth and worst wife, Lola, gets everything. May the best man win.
-Your Pa, Joe Roark"

So goes the will that is left to Freddy Roark and her pampered, high-strung half-sisters. Now a fortune depended on the three working together--and finding a trail boss to teach them to rope, ride, and herd cattle across seven hundred miles of open plains. He'd have to be one desparate man...

Dal Frisco needed the job bad enough to deal with the devil--or the Roark sisters. But before their dangerous journey began, he found himself blindsided with desire as searing as a red-hot brand. Freddy's beauty and maverick spirit had him both hogtied and filled with hope...as they all headed into the hidden places of the heart.
