Texas Heat

A surprise inheritance. A family of strangers. And a man she can't avoid . . .<P>Cassidy Calhoun can't believe she's the secret daughter of an oil billionaire. This small-town Texas girl with student loans by the barrel has never gotten a thing she didn't earn for herself. <P>The terms of her late father's will say Cassidy-and her newfound spoiled half-siblings-must work a year at the family's floundering business before they inherit a dime. Too bad the only thing Cass knows about oil is that it makes the junker she drives go. <P>Mason MacKenzie the evaluator for their test will help her get up to speed. Or will he? Mason is a boot-wearing truck-driving Houston hottie who runs Calhoun Petroleum's biggest rival. The sparks between him and Cassidy could combust any minute. But the closer they get the more strange near-accidents Cassidy seems to be having. And Mason has plenty of reasons to play up their attraction for his own benefit. <P>If she can trust him the two of them working together might save a crumbling dynasty. But if she can't Cass might just lose both her fortune and her heart . . .
