       “Nice try, sweetheart.” His low chuckle seemed to vibrate straight through her.

      “I didn’t say I would agree to anything. I said we’d talk.”

      She took a deep breath. “All right, cowboy. I’ll stay with you at the Big Blue. But I want you to promise that you’ll keep an open mind and give me a fair chance to change it.”

      “Only if you’ll drop the matter if I decide against doing it,” he said, extending his hand to shake on their deal.

      The moment her palm touched his an exciting little shiver slid up her spine, and Felicity couldn’t help but wonder what she had gotten herself into. Chance Lassiter was not only the best choice for redeeming his family in the eyes of the public, he was the only man in a very long time to remind her of the amazing differences between a man and a woman.

      Lured by the Rich Rancher is a Dynasties: The Lassiters novel— A Wyoming legacy of love, lies and redemption!

      Dear Reader,

      When I was invited to participate in the Dynasties: The Lassiters series, I was thrilled to learn I would be working with some of my favorite authors and very good friends. We always have so much fun developing our characters and coordinating plots, and this time was no different.

      In the fourth installment of the Lassiter family saga, Lured by the Rich Rancher, we see what happens when country meets city. Chance Lassiter, owner of the Big Blue Ranch, and Fee Sinclair, a public relations executive who works for his family’s company, Lassiter Media, are as different as night and day. But when they meet at his sister’s wedding, sparks fly and Wyoming nights have never been hotter.

      I hope you enjoy reading Chance and Fee’s story as much as I enjoyed writing it. There’s nothing like a good cowboy story to warm your heart and put a smile on your face.

      All the best,

      Kathie DeNosky

      At the designated time on the Fourth of July, Chance Lassiter and his half sister, Hannah Armstrong, approached the doorway to the massive great room in the Big Blue ranch house. “This seems wrong. I just learned two months ago that I have a sister and now I’m giving you away,” he complained.

      “That’s true,” she said, smiling. “But since you and Logan are good friends, I think we’ll probably be seeing each other quite often.”

      “You can count on it.” He gazed fondly at his five-year-old niece waiting to throw flower petals as she preceded them down the aisle. “I told Cassie I would come over and take her into Cheyenne for ice cream at least once a week. And I’m not letting her down.”

      “You’re going to spoil her,” Hannah teased good-naturedly.

      Grinning, he shrugged. “I’m her favorite uncle. It’s expected.”

      “You’re her only uncle,” Hannah shot back, laughing. “You have to be her favorite.”

      When he first discovered that he had a half sister from the extramarital affair his late father had some thirty years ago, Chance had experienced a variety of emotions. At first, he’d resented the fact that the man he had grown up believing to be a pillar of morality had cheated on Chance’s mother. Then learning that Marlene Lassiter had known her husband had a daughter and hadn’t told him had compounded Chance’s disillusionment. His mother had been aware of how much he missed having a sibling and he felt deprived of the relationship they might have had growing up. But in the two months since meeting Hannah and his adorable niece, he had done his best to make up for lost time.

      Chance tucked Hannah’s hand in the crook of his arm. “Besides the standing ice-cream date, you know that all you or Cassie have to do is pick up the phone and I’ll
