THE COWBOYS OF 

NAKED BLUFF, TEXAS

4 Stories for less than buying them individually

Blurbs:

Texas Passion 

Furious, Catherine Jensen refuses to allow her dream of marrying Trent McCall to fall into ruins because of an end-of-the-trail party. Not wanting him to sleep with a painted lady or two on the eve of their engagement, she arranges a seduction. But at what cost? Will it secure their future or ruin her squeaky-clean reputation?

Excited to celebrate his success of completing a long cattle drive with a sexy lady, Trent is blindsided with the news of an arranged marriage between him and a girl he hasn’t seen in four years because she’d hightailed it to Boston.

Now a city girl, she’d probably turn out to be just like his family’s deserting momma, who’d bailed when the going got tough.

Pissed, his bad mood eases when he learns a special lady was meeting him at his hunting cabin. With the future uncertain, he figured a passion-filled night might lighten the load of his matrimonial chains.

 

In Too Deep

Furious with her in-laws’ demands to marry her deceased husband’s brother, Sadie Pepperman heads for the Trinity River with a friend to escape the pressure of their unsolicited advice.

Seeking an adventure, Callum Murphy and his friend, Marcus Goodman, are heading to the Gulf of Mexico to join the confederate army. Their quiet camp is interrupted by a lady’s scream. Spotting a woman in the swiftly moving water, Marcus jumps to the rescue, followed almost immediately by the rumble of wagon wheels along the dirt path, accompanied by a beautiful lady calling for help. 

Attempting to save her friend, Sadie meets Callum and joins forces. Only to discover their friends are being hauled onto a steamship. Eager to get away from temptation, she turns to leave and twists her ankle. The agonizing pain leaves her with the inability to walk. To avoid asking her in-laws for help, she offers Callum a place to stay if he’ll help with her farm’s chores.

Enamored with the lady, he discovers she has a few issues; crops to bring in from the fields, a sex starved brother-in-law, and a body which inflames his desire. One problem, however, worries him. Can he convince her to forget the other rascals in her life and give him a chance?

  

In Deep Water

Hot? Yes, Texas summers sizzle. Lured by the brilliant idea of dipping naked into the Trinity River, Carolyn Evans wades into the water and is captured by the swift moving current, putting her life in danger.

Help! The cry sends Marcus Goodman, who’s on his way with a friend to the Gulf of Mexico to join the confederate army into the river to save the naked lady. The only problem is a passing steamboat has the same mission, placing him in a ticklish situation when they’re pulled aboard, and she claims they are married.

Tempted by the adventurous opportunity and enthralled with the sexy woman, he holds her to the claim of matrimony. Will this end with a happy-ever-after union or a soul-crushing heartache?

 

More than Ready

Depressed by his inability to honor his deceased brother by farming his land and wedding his wife, Kirk Pepperman is struggling with his bleak future.

Perpetually cast as the girl next door, Mary Beth Owens knows her parents are arranging a marriage between Kirk and herself. Loving him wasn’t a problem, but if he couldn’t please her, then why bother?

Can this couple forget the past and have a future together?

Guest Post - 8/12/22 - "In Deep Water" by Anita Philmar #TexasRomance, #hothistorical, #Western

 Saved by a sexy stranger, Carolyn Devans tells a lie claiming Marcus Goodman is her husband…Now can she hope for a happy-ever-after or just enjoy a brief affair?

Excerpt:

Sinking lower into the murky depths, Marcus realized her panicked grip had loosened before a muffled scream rang above him and a foot connected with his chest. Seconds later, air exploded from his lungs. Darting away from her, he scurried to the surface and was met with a roaring whirl.

Gulping in both air and water, his lungs rejected the mixture, causing a stream of coughs to inhibit his progress of saving the drowning damsel.

Plop.

Spinning, he caught sight of a floating white circle before waves crashed around him.

“Grab hold, and we’ll pull you up.” A voice boomed from the steamboat.

Instantly glancing around, he noticed the woman struggling to reach the device. Swimming over to her, he shoved her closer to the floating ring before grabbing hold and draping an arm around her waist. “Just hold on, and they’ll lift us up.”

Eyes growing wider, she stared up at the boat’s railing. “But...”

After being drug for a short distance, the ring lifted onto its side. Tightening his grip on the woman, he repositioned her into its center. “If you put your head through here, you can wrap your arms over the sides, and it’ll help keep you steady.”

Seconds after following his instructions, the device rose between them. Immediately grabbing ahold of the rope, he wrapped his arms around her and the ring. Then the upward movement tugged them from the water. His feet dangled in the river for a moment before they swung on the end of the line. The rope jerking them upward, slammed him into the side of the steamboat. Pain radiated along his right side, prompting his grip to tighten.

“Oh, God, what if they drop us?” Her whispered words rang with fear before she buried her face onto his upper torso. “Thanks for at least trying to save me.”

Plastered against him, her silky skin caressed his stomach while her alluring warmth penetrated the fabric of his pants, diverting the pain in his back and created a fire in his blood that eased the frigid chill of the tributary.

Hearing the voices of the people lining the steamboat’s railing, he glanced up at the concerned expressions above. With his frame hiding the naked woman in his arms, he couldn’t help but wonder what the curious passengers would say when they finally arrived on board in their current state of undress.

Guest Post - 8/2/2022 - "In Too Deep" by Anita Philmar #TexasRomance #historical #hotread

 Desperate woman seeks helps from a stranger…but can she escape loosing her heart to this sexy stranger.

Excerpt:

Oh, God, what the hell was I thinking?

Aware of the searing blush on her face, she bowed her head to hide her embarrassment from the man still holding her in his arms. Flustered by her reaction to him, she drew her hands back to her chest and held tight to the thin fabric of her top.

Releasing her, he squatted to examine her foot. His hands circled her calf and glided over her ankle. “Sorry, but you’re not walking on this foot anytime soon.”

His emerald gaze met hers and she sank into their welcoming depths. The sudden urge to get away from him melted under his smile. Damn, I’ve always been a fool for an Irish devil.

Easing his palm along her leg to her knee, he squeezed it before rising. “Why don’t I help you get dressed? Then we’ll head back to where Marcus and I camped. Once I retrieve my things, I’ll take you home.”

Captured by the caress, she didn’t hear his words. Instead, she fought the sudden attraction expanding through her core and dug through her memory, searching for a way to avoid the danger of another heartbreak.

Luckily, the saints were with her because he stepped away. Leaving her torn between the old carefree spirit she’d been in her youth and the more season soul she’d become by trusting the wrong man with her heart. With great restraint, she held her tongue and watched each step he took around the wagon.

Pausing after a moment, he reached over the side and retrieved her discarded dress.

Hit by the reality, she lambasted herself for believing any man would want her. Didn’t Kirk, Richard’s brother, constantly tell her she was plain, and that no one would want her other than him?

Fighting the depressing thought, she swung her head to the path along the river and stared. What would it hurt to take Callum home with her? If she could persuade him to help her instead of having to ask her in-laws, then she might break free of their constant presence in her life.

Or was she playing with fire?

“If you’ll just lift your arms,” the handsome stranger stopped in front of her. “Then I’ll slide your dress over your head, and you can button it right up.”

Studying him, she debated her choices. Could she resist him? If so, then... Mind racing with potential solutions, a workable proposition blurted between her lips. “Why don’t you come home with me? I’ll need help with my farm until I can walk again. And could use the extra help.”

Lifting her dress again, he nodded as if he’d already devised the plan before she even thought of it. “It’ll give me a place to stay until Marcus and your friend return.”

Still uncertain if he understood what she was offering, she clarified, “You’ll need to handle most of the chores. Because I’m not sure how soon I’ll be back on my feet. So, how much will this cost me?”
