For the Roses





          In Blue Belle, Montana, everyone knew better than to mess with the
Claybornes. The brothers had once been a mismatched gang of street urchins--until
they found an abandoned baby girl in a New York City alley, named her Mary Rose,
and headed west to raise her to be a lady. They became a family--held together by
loyalty and love if not by blood--when suddenly they faced a crisis that threatened
to tear them apart....



          Trouble came to town with one Lord Harrison Stanford MacDonald.
Armed with a swagger and six-shooter, he cut a striking figure--but it soon became
apparent to Mary Rose that he was too much of a gentleman to make it in her
rough-and-tumble town. She asked her brothers to teach him the basics of frontier
survival, which he acquired with ease. And soon he possessed a deep and desperate
love for Mary Rose. She returned his affection wholeheartedly...until MacDonald
revealed a secret that challenged everything she believed about herself, her life,
and her newfound love. Now her search for identity and meaning would begin, raising
questions that could only be answered if she listened to the truth within her heart....
