Against the Rules

“You can’t just read one Linda Howard” Catherine Coulter
Cathryn Ashe is looking to make a quick trip back home to the ranch she's owned for years since her father's death before returning to her city life. When she was seventeen, she and Rule Jackson, the ranch manager, had a torrid entanglement after which she ran away. Now, eight years later, she returns, sure of herself and her newfound independence and ready to challenge him again.
But Rule had raised the stakes, and if she lost now the penalty would be high: her heart, the heart that she finally knew had always been his for the taking.
But Rule, once wild and now reformed, has never been as passionate about any woman as he is with Cathryn. However the two of them together always end up fighting and disagreeing. As she stays longer, Rule can't help but fall in love with her. Can Rule show Cathryn that they are meant to be together?
