Beauty has been nothing but a curse to Penelope Snow, and when her beauty is discovered, her mistress arranges her disappearance. Texas Ranger Titus Kingsley is assigned a robbery case tied to Penelope—and all evidence points to her—but he might be convinced that the fairest woman of all has a heart as pure as her last name . . . if only he can prove it.

When Samantha Dearing's rancher father hosts a ball to find her a husband, she balks at the prospect of marrying a man not of her own choosing. After a mystery guest saves her brother's life and then disappears, leaving only his boot behind, her search for its owner leads to an ending more enchanting than she imagined.
