Scarlett

I don’t want to lie to him. I really don’t.

First of all, he's hot. Really hot. I know I swore off gorgeous men for the rest of eternity, but Tenn Sawyer has me questioning all of my choices. At least, any choices that mean I can’t have him.

Second, he isn’t just hot, Tenn is bossy and domineering and patient and his smile makes my panties melt. And that was all before he kidnapped me.

After...I have no reason to trust him. There's too much at risk to follow my gut. One mistake and I'll lose everything.

But with Tenn, I can't seem to help myself.

Tenn

I knew she was trouble the second I lay eyes on her. Okay, it took me two minutes to figure it out. At first all I saw was a gorgeous woman I needed to get to know. Preferably naked.

Five minutes later, everything changed. Scarlett isn’t just a woman I want, suddenly she's my lifeline, the only thing keeping me from a murder charge. And if that isn’t complicated enough, every other word out of her mouth is a lie.

She needs my help. She won't trust me enough to ask. Every moment we're together binds us until I can't imagine not having her, even with all of her lies between us.

When she finally comes clean, and I understand what's at stake, I'm not worried about going to jail. I’m too busy trying to keep us alive.

Scheming Heart is a standalone romance with a happy ending. It’s third in The Hearts of Sawyers Bend series, featuring the Sawyer family of Sawyers Bend.
