Comanche Temptation by Sara Orwig

Description

Fate unites a cowboy and a half-Indian woman in frontier Texas, in this “poignant, well-told tale of forbidden love” from a USA Today–bestselling author (Rendezous).

Honor Roth has spent her life dreaming of only one man, a handsome cowboy named Luke McCloud. It seems unlikely someone like him could ever belong to Honor, who has grown up taunted by other children and labeled a half-breed. But one day, as her father lies on his deathbed, he makes a final plea to save their family show more ranch: Honor and Luke must wed—in name only—to hold the property deed until her brother, Jed Roth, comes of age and can take over.

Now Honor, to her dismay, finds herself trapped in a loveless marriage. Luke, meanwhile, is on the run for a crime he did not commit. But he intends to repay the debt to his wife’s father and then be gone.

But first he must survive the poachers and bounty hunters that are hot on his trail—and wrestle with the blazing yearning for Honor that is growing hotter in his heart . . . show less

Pretty good western romance. I had a little bit of a hard time with the heroine being married and having smex at 16 and the hero(28) lusting after her, even though that was not unusual for the times. Much of the conflict comes from the emotional seesaw, hero trying not to fall in love with heroine because of his past.(They had to marry to keep the ranch out of her evil uncle's clutches and it was supposed to be a marriage of convenience.)Most of their problems got solved very quickly at the end of the story, without an epilogue. 3.5/5 stars
