Cattleman's Choice. Diana Palmer

“Oh, all right,” she said with equal curtness.
He seemed to relax a little. “Great. Where do we start?”
Her eyes wandered over him. God help her, it would take a miracle. “You’ll need some new clothes,” she said. “A haircut, a shave…”
“What kind of clothes?”

She grimaced. “Well, I don’t know!”

“Why not Carter’s Men’s Shop in Sweetwater?” she protested.
His jaw tightened. “No way am I going in there with you, while old man Carter laughs in his whiskers watching us.”
She almost laughed at the fierce way he said it. “Okay. Phoenix it is.”
