Dear Reader,
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 was Uncle Coreyâs tripletsâClint, Cole and Casey.
What began as a six-book series will become a thirty-book series when I conclude with all the Denver Westmorelands. I was very happy when Kimani responded to my readersâ request that the earlier books be reprinted. And Iâm even happier that the reissues are in a great, two-books-in-one format.
Dreams of Forever includes Seduction, Westmoreland Style and Spencerâs Forbidden Passion. These are two Westmoreland classics and are books ten and eleven in the Westmoreland series. Triplet Casey Westmoreland has a thing or two to prove to McKinnon Quinn, and Spencer Westmoreland finds out the hard way that you canât turn your back on love, especially when the womanâs name is Chardonnay.
I hope you enjoy reading these special romances as much as I enjoyed writing them.
Happy reading!

Chapter 1
Casey Westmoreland entered the barn and paused, mesmerized by the sound of the warm, seductive masculine voice speaking gently to the huge black stallion being given a brush down. She was mesmerized even more by the man himself.
McKinnon Quinn.
In her opinion, he was as gorgeous as any one male had a right to be. Mixed with Blackfoot Indian and African-American Creole, she couldnât help but wish for more time to just stand there and admire what she saw.
Tall and ruggedly built with thick wavy black hair that fell to his shoulder blades, his blue shirt swathed a massive chest, and the well-worn jeans that covered a well-structured butt almost took her breath away when he leaned over to replace the brush with a comb. She didnât need for him to turn around to know what his features looked like. They were ingrained deep in her brain. He had an angular face with eyes as dark as a ravenâs wing, high cheekbones, medium-brown skin that almost appeared golden, a straight nose, stubborn jaw and full lips. She took a trembling breath and felt the warmth of a blush stain her cheeks just thinking about those lips and her secret fantasy of having her way with them.
Another thing she knew about McKinnon Quinn was that, at thirty-four, he was considered by manyâespecially now that his best friend and her cousin, Durango Westmoreland, had recently gotten marriedâto be the most eligible bachelor in Bozeman, Montana, and its surrounding areas. Sheâd also heard his bachelor status was something he valued with no plans to relinquish.
It was her opinion from their first meeting a little over two years ago that there was a quiet and innately controlled nature about him. Although he shared a rather close relationship with her cousins, there was still something about him that gave the impression that not too many others got close to him. He picked those he wanted to be associated with and any others he kept at a distance. Whenever she was around him she always felt he was watching her, and she could always feel his gaze on her like it was some sort of a physical caress.
âAre you going to state your business or just stand there?â
His words, spoken in a deep, cutting voice, caught her off guard and made her wonder if he had eyes in the back of his head. She was certain she hadnât made a sound, yet he had sensed her presence anyway.
âI know how important grooming time is and didnât want to intrude,â Casey heard herself saying after a moment, deciding to finally speak up.
