Description en VO :

SO YOUNG, SO CAREFREE

It was bad enough that her husband had died in the arms of the local prostitute, but in the year since, Marian Bradley's small oil company had been mysteriously losing money--enough to put her welfare and her daughter's in jeopardy.

Desperate, Marian called in an Oklahoma state troubleshooter. Donovan Powers zeroed in on the likely problem--oil rustlers--and set out to track them down.

Marian found Donovan charming--but he was almost a decade younger. A relationship would stir up more cruel gossip, and her daughter had suffered enough. If only his kiss didn't promise paradise...

* * *

After her husband’s scandalous death, Marian struggled to run the small Oklahoma oil company they had built together, but when petroleum rustlers threatened the welfare of her and her teenage daughter, Marian was forced to ask for help from a young troubleshooter. Donovan warned that tracking thieves was dangerous, but Marian would risk anything to protect the business. But could she protect her heart?
