What could be better than four stories staring hot Texas Rangers? GIVE ME A TEXAS RANGER tells the stories of four hunky rangers and the smart gutsy women who prove the saying that behind every great man is an amazing woman. In Undertaking Texas, Devils Creek just screamed a need for law and order, but Ranger Burke was just stopping to pick up a convict. He stepped in to save the town's barber/undertaker and realized she was Texanna, the widow of his friend, former ranger Sam Wilder. Not sure what kind of trouble he stepped into, and not looking to get involved, he was unable to look the other way when it came to the safety of Anna and her son. He owed that to Sam. But was that all there was to it? He and Anna had shared kisses before she ultimately chose Sam. Was it possible feelings still remained? Was there time to find out?

In One Woman One Ranger, Buffalo Springs is where fine upstanding citizens live. Cross the creek, and you're in Buffalo Wallow, a whole other story. Ranger Hayden McGraw was on his way to the other side when his attention was drawn to a ruckus in the street. In the middle of the chaos was Ella. She had no intention of standing still and letting the do-gooders force all the single saloon girls to marry just to clean up the town. Next thing you know, Hayden and Ella were signing the marriage register. It was the only way to protect Ella's reputation. But he had to admit an attraction and respect for her ability to stand up for even the most questionable characters. While waiting for his reinstatement as a ranger and a new assignment, Hayden discovered trouble brewing, determined to get to the bottom of it -- even if all signs pointed to his own little woman Ella.

In The Perfect Match, Thomas Longbow's assignment was easy -- follow boxer Pete Maher and prevent an illegal boxing match. For his part Maher was playing it smart -- out in the open for all to see. For Laney O'Grady, a saddle maker, Maher's request for a new pair of boxing gloves was the means for needed funds. Laney was intent on getting custody of her stepson Gideon. When Thomas questioned Laney about her dealings with Maher, she thought he was a reporter and he decided to play along. He was immediately attracted to this gorgeous woman and figured it might give him something to enjoy while tailing the boxer. Once Laney realized Thomas was no reporter but rather a ranger, she hoped that he would become a valuable ally and more.

In The Ranger's Angel, McCord realized his mission was to protect Anna at all costs. Saving her life would ultimately save his own. His heart hardened over years, this rough Texas Ranger found himself attracted to this prim and proper northern woman who never recognized her value as a woman. She was always the protector and caregiver. It might be the most important time for both Anna and McCord -- a chance to love and be loved. Are they willing to take that chance?

The stories in GIVE ME A TEXAS RANGER make you wish for one of your own. What woman doesn't dream of a tough man with a gentle touch whose heart is ripe for the taking? Hot, gorgeous hunks who know how to take care of their woman, and women who are up for the challenge of capturing the hearts of these independent men.
