Leaving Normal

A cattle drive is no place for a lady in bows and buttons…unless she’s in love with a rancher in denim and rawhide. Love sizzles in this Western romance from USA TODAY bestselling author Stef Ann Holm. Newly independent city girl Josephine Whittaker succeeded in heading West, all on her own. But once she set foot in the crude cow town of Sienna, Wyoming, her first inclination was to board the next train back out—and she would have, if she hadn’t lost everything she owned. Suddenly, a job as a ranch cook seemed a good idea—at least it was better than making money as a dance-hall girl. It didn’t seem that important if she neglected to tell her new boss that she’d never so much as boiled an egg… J.D. McCall knew from the get-go that a pretty lady in the chuck wagon with a bunch of cowboys meant trouble. But he faced mutiny among his ranch hands if he didn’t bring home a cook—and she said fried beef was her specialty. How could he know he’d never want to let her go? J.D.’s own mother had abandoned his father and the harsh frontier life to go back East. Loving Josephine was sure to break his heart…unless this lady proved she had grit, gumption, and what it took to be a cattle rancher’s wife—his wife.

The proud owner of Bruiser's Gymnasium, Jake has little patience for the proper Miss Valentine -- until he gets a taste of what simmers beneath her prim exterior. Trouble is, Jake's not the marrying kind -- not hardly. Soon Truvy is teaching dance classes at Edwina's school and Jake is making her head spin. But the magic they Þnd in each other's arms could turn to heartache unless they can learn to let go of the past and step into the future -- together.

Stef Ann Holm has created the most warm-hearted, heart-stirring romance of the season” (Romantic Times). When prim deportment teacher Edwina Huntington finds herself co-owner of a warehouse with rugged sportsman Tom Wolcott, togetherness in Harmony, Montana, is anything but. And as soon as they discover that they clash more than their choices of paint color—lemon yellow and slaughter red—sparks fly in every shade. Edwina wants to educate women on the ceremonies of society, as preparation for marriage—though she’s resigned to spinsterhood. Tom hasn’t thought much about matrimony one way or the other—his world of big guns and big grizzlies has kept him plenty occupied—until now. Equally fierce-willed, Edwina and Tom square off for a showdown. But they’re both helpless in the face of the powerful attraction that explodes between them, and soon the battle of the sexes rages in a new direction…true love.
