The Maverick's Reward
by Roxann Delaney
Tucker O'Brien hates doctors, and know-it-all Paige Miles is no exception. After spending eight months as a POW, the veteran wants to be left alone. His bum leg is a lost cause, no matter the nosy doc's promises. Besides, Tucker's in Desperation, Oklahoma, to spend two months with his son, a now-teenager he never knew existed. When time runs out, so will he. Just like he did nineteen years ago.Yet the relief Paige offers is hard to pass up, as is a chance with the beautiful physician. So Tucker will make her a deal—he'll agree to physical therapy, but only if she's his personal caregiver. He's determined to leave as soon as he can. But sticking to this plan may be tougher than he thinks.
