Cutter’s Lady by Candace Camp

New York City hotelier Leslie Harper is obviously out of place in the seedy bar in Purcell, Texas. But it’s exactly the place to find the man she needs.

And Cutter is that man. A rough, stubborn ex-military pilot, Cutter is the type of alpha male Leslie hates, but he’s the only one who can guide her through the jungles of conflict-ravaged San Cristobal.

From the start, the only thing they can agree on is that they can’t stand each other. But as they work together on a daring rescue attempt, eluding rival bands of revolutionaries and government spies, they find that the passion between them might be even more perilous than their mission.
