Elizabeth McKinnie will no longer accept men ruling her life. After the Civil War devastated her family home and having no way to survive, Elizabeth accepts one of the mail-order bride proposals presented to her and her sisters. She chooses a man who promises to treat her as an equal. Her sister convinces her to switch suitors, proclaiming the weather in Texas would be more suitable for Elizabeth’s weak lungs. Agreeing, she heads west to meet the mysterious cattle baron she knows little about.

Jeb Clayton grew up as a poor son of a drunkard. He has worked his entire life to ensure he never starves again. He is a man who understands cows better than women, especially after watching the fairer sex manipulate his father into an early grave. Still, he begrudgingly agrees to marry a sturdy bride to produce sons who can help build his ranch into an empire. Yet, what he sees getting off the stagecoach is a whisper-of-a-woman with undesirable birthing hips.

When Elizabeth’s and Jeb’s futures are threatened will they join forces, or will their bitterness be their end?

Denae:

I used to have a ten-year plan. After my disastrous marriage ended in mere
weeks, I hit the reset button on my life. Now I'm living for the moment with my
only responsibility being a top-level assistant at a high-end fashion magazine.
I have zero expectations and I like it that way. Until I meet HIM. Zane
Lawrence. A sexy private investigator who moonlights as a bartender at the new
Martini bar in town. Now if I can just get through one meeting with him without
falling flat on my face, I might fall in love instead.



Zane:

When this gorgeous brunette bellied up to my bar asking for shots of Fireball
on a Wednesday night, I was intrigued. She was sexy, funny and seemed like the
total package until she broke her heel and came crashing down on my bar. I’m
afraid a date with her might require a helmet and pads just to survive the
night.



What happens when a hapless, accident-prone woman sets out to win the man of
her dreams?

Author Bio


Heather Rayne is the dirty and flirty writing
collaboration between published authors Heather Guimond and Daryn Rayne.  They are two crazy, overly-caffeinated,
under-intoxicated flovers who enjoy fine vodka, wine, and are hell-bent on
world domination.




Heather Guimond

Heather Guimond is a Los Angeles native, a fact of which she
is abnormally proud. When she's not trying to write something that will make
people laugh while simultaneously ripping their hearts out, she's either
reading or doing her best to crack the whip on her three home-schooled
children. She loves all things witty and wise-cracking, as well most varieties
of smart-assery (just ask her very own smart-ass, her husband). Other favorites
include French roast coffee in copious amounts and the dirtiest Dirty Martinis
she can find. More than anything, she hopes that she writes books that stick
with the reader long after the pages have been read.


Daryn Rayne

Daryn is a former fashion model-turned writer, but her
dreams of fame and fortune on the catwalk were suddenly dashed when she fell
flat on her face during a big show. 
Ashamed and hobbled, she released all her frustrations into a collection
of poetry called “Songs from My Poor, Broken Ass.”  Ever since, there has been no stopping her in
the literary world.

Excerpt

Gabi pulled
her thoughts together and headed toward the door. It’d been a couple of 
hours since
she and Jake had woken up, and...well... If he was downstairs, she wanted to
start 
the day
again. The men would be leaving for Vegas again, and she wanted every second
she 
could get
with him before they did. Catching sight of her wrist cuffs, she reached for
them 
without
thought. But as she touched the soft leather, she remembered they were no
longer 
appropriate
and pulled her hand back, leaving them where they waited—ignoring the pang in 
her heart.
Enough.
She walked
over to the mirror to have a chat with herself when something in her 
reflection
caught her attention. Her eyes focused in on blue script peeking out along her 
collarbone.
There’d been so much to distract her, she’d forgotten about Jake writing on
her!
Stepping
closer to the mirror, her heart pounded as she pulled the fabric back to reveal
the 
words
reflected backwards.
His Power
She ran her
fingers across the script written by Jake and her heart ached. It was one 
thing to
see his words in her own writing, but something altogether different to see
them in his 
writing.
But what did he mean by, his power?
She grabbed
the hand mirror and pivoted to read what he’d written on the back of her 
shoulder.
Comes from
her Gift
It took a
moment to register, but then it clicked. There was something so poignant in 
that simple
statement that Gabi found herself unable to move from the spot. As if almost
for 
the first
time, she realized that, without a submissive, a Dominant’s power couldn’t
exist.
Without a
partner, he had no one to lead. 
His power
came from her. 
Not because
he demanded it. Not because he wanted it. Not because he decided it.
But because
she did.

The
controlling old duke’s last wishes.
The
mysterious new duke’s first demands.
And I'm the
headstrong new duchess who’s caught between them.

From an American billionaire’s daughter, to
almost a duchess, to actually a duchess…it’s been a strange 24 hours.

Our plan
was simple, if not scandalous. Me, the 29-year-old daughter of an American
billionaire, marrying him, the ancient Duke of Manly on his hundredth birthday.
But then, neither of us has ever been conventional. We were each going to get
something we desperately desired out of the marriage. For me, it wasn't money.
And it certainly wasn't sex. The plan was working so well. Until Manly dies at
the altar before saying "I do." With his dying breath, Manly
maneuvers me into a marriage of convenience with his hot, mysterious heir, Ren
Sattler, the new duke. Suddenly I'm drawn into the mysteries surrounding the castle
and Ren—mysteries that threaten my hopes of saving the estate and my
marriage…not to mention my heart.

DUKED is a
sexy, standalone modern marriage of convenience story that blends billionaire,
modern gothic, and contemporary romance and has a happily-ever-after.
