Table of Contents
When I first introduced the Westmoreland family, little did I know they would become hugely popular with readers. Originally, the Westmoreland family series was intended to be just six books, Delaney and her five brothersâDare, Thorn, Stone, Storm and Chase. Later, I wanted my readers to meet their cousinsâJared, Spencer, Durango, Ian, Quade and Reggie. Finally, there were Uncle Coreyâs tripletsâClint, Cole and Casey.
What began as a six-book series blossomed into a thirty-book series when I included the Denver Westmorelands. I was very happy when Mills & Boon Kimani Arabesque responded to my readersâ requests that the earlier books be reprinted. And Iâm even happier that the reissues are in a great two-in-one format.
Sparks of Temptation contains The Proposal and Feeling the Heat. These are two Westmoreland classics and are books number twenty and twenty-one in the Westmoreland series. In The Proposal, Jason meets Bella Bostwick and awakens to passion the likes of which heâs never had before. It doesnât take long for him to figure out that Bella is the one woman whose heart he needs to conquer. And in Feeling the Heat, Micah intends to prove that when a Westmoreland wants somethingâor someoneâhe will stop at nothing to get it, and Micah Westmoreland wants Kalina Daniels back in his life. Grab a cold drink. Itâs going to be hot!
I hope you enjoy reading these special stories as much as I enjoyed writing them.
Happy reading!

âHello, maâam, Iâm Jason Westmoreland and Iâd like to welcome you to Denver.â
Even before she turned around, the deep, male voice had Bella Bostwickâs stomach clenching as the throaty sound vibrated across her skin. And then when she gazed up into his eyes she had to practically force oxygen into her lungs. He had to be the most gorgeous man sheâd ever seen.
For a moment she couldnât speak nor was she able to control her gaze from roaming over him and appreciating everything she saw. He was tall, way over six feet, with dark brown eyes, sculpted cheekbones and a chiseled jaw. And then there was his skin, a deep, rich chocolate-brown that had her remembering her craving for that particular treat and how delicious it was. But nothing could be more appealing than his lips and the way they were shaped. Sensuous. Sumptuous. A perfect pair for the sexy smile curving them.
He said he was a Westmoreland and because this charity ball was given on behalf of the Westmoreland Foundation, she could only assume he was one of those Westmorelands.
She took the hand heâd extended and wished she hadnât when a heated sizzle rode up her spine the moment she touched it. She tried forcing the sensation away. âAnd Iâm Elizabeth Bostwick, but I prefer just Bella.â
The smile curving his lips widened a fraction, enough to send warm blood rushing through her veins. âHi, Bella.â
The way he pronounced her name was ultrasexy. She thought his smile was intoxicating and definitely contagious, which was the reason she could so easily return it. âHi, Jason.â
âFirst, Iâd like to offer my condolences on the loss of your grandfather.â
âThank you.â
âAnd then Iâm hoping the two of us could talk about the ranch you inherited. If you decide to sell it, Iâd like to put in my bid for both the ranch and Hercules.â
Bella drew in a deep breath. Her grandfather Herman Bostwick had died last month and left his land and prized stallion to her. She had seen the horse when sheâd come to town for the reading of the will and would admit he was beautiful. She had returned to Denver from Savannah only yesterday to handle more legal matters regarding her grandfatherâs estate. âI havenât decided what I plan on doing regarding the ranch or the livestock, but if I do decide to sell I will keep your interest in mind. But I need to make you aware that according to my uncle Kenneth there are others whoâve expressed the same interest.â
