When an oh-so-proper boarding school headmistress requires the services of a hardened bounty hunter... Thanks to a lavish inheritance from her great-aunt, Rachel West can finally afford her biggest dream - to open a finishing school for young ladies in her hometown. When her newly acquired wealth also makes her the target of a notorious swindler, she contacts a skilled bounty hunter for assistance. Boone Cassidy is accustomed to far more dangerous assignments than hauling off the unwanted suitors of rich socialites. However, he owes a friend a favor, so he grudgingly accepts the job. At least, this target has a big enough price on his head to make it worth Boone's while. He can only hope the uppity Miss West doesn't mind teaming up with a rough and tough fellow from the bayou to bring the swindler to justice. All it takes is one encounter with the lovely headmistress for him to realize how badly he's misjudged her character, as well as the amount of trouble she's in. An unexpected attraction soon has him risking everything to protect her and her growing bevy of students. ★ More Sweet Mail Order Romance Stories by Jo ★ MAIL ORDER BRIDES ON THE RUN Cowboy for Annabelle Cowboy for Penelope MAIL ORDER BRIDES OF CHRISTMAS MOUNTAIN Bride for the Innkeeper Bride for the Deputy Bride for the Tribal Chief WIDOWS, BRIDES, AND SECRET BABIES Mail Order Mallory Mail Order Isabella Mail Order Melissande MAIL ORDER BRIDES OF COWBOY CREEK Elizabeth Grace Lilly MAIL ORDER BRIDES RESCUE SERIES Hot-Tempered Hannah Cold-Feet Callie Fiery Felicity Misunderstood Meg Dare-Devil Daisy Outrageous Olivia Jinglebell Jane Absentminded Amelia Bookish Belinda Tenacious Trudy Meddlesome Madge Mismatched MaryAnne
