Texas Outlaws: Cole. Kimberly Raye
Читать онлайн книгу.>
Criminally Hot!
Cole Chisholm is a droolworthy bronc rider, and every inch the bad boy most mothers would warn their daughters about. Which means he’s exactly the guy Nicole Barbie needs.
Nicole has carefully cultivated a rep of her own, but she’s not really the bad girl everyone thinks she is. Her mother is pushing her to continue in the tradition of the wild women in their family when all Nicole wants is to focus on becoming the best chef in fifty states. Fortunately, Cole is the perfect guy for creating a sinful sensation…or at least helping with the pretense of one.
But once these two bad reputations get together, there’ll be more heat between the sheets than in all of Texas!

Dear Reader,
It’s always hot in Texas, but it’s blazing-hot this month thanks to Cole Chisholm, the last of the notorious Chisholm brothers and the star of my newest novel, Texas Outlaws: Cole. Cole is a professional bronc rider and the sexiest bachelor on the professional rodeo circuit. He’s also the hottest commodity among the single women of Lost Gun, Texas, and so the race is on to see who can lasso him to the altar first.
The lucky winner? Resident bad girl Nikki Barbie. Nikki comes from a long line of wild and wicked women—particularly a mother who thinks men are only good for one thing. The thing is, Nikki isn’t half as wild in the bedroom as she is in the kitchen. She wants to become a professional chef and she’s this close to making her dream come true. But when her sisters get married and she becomes her mother’s last great hope to continue the family’s risqué reputation, Nikki knows she has to get the woman off her back once and for all. The only way to do that? Tie the knot.
When Nikki makes her proposition—a marriage of convenience followed by a quickie divorce—Cole agrees. It’s the perfect setup. That is, until things start to get complicated thanks to a lot of money from an old bank heist, an unexpected robbery and a bad case of lust.
Sit back, relax and enjoy as Cole and Nikki do their best to recover the money, clear Cole’s good name and not fall in love!
Much love from deep in the heart,
Kimberly Raye
