Carrie Ann Meadows is a dreamer, a bit of a schemer, and the prettiest girl in Centerville. If she’d get her nose out of those damn dime novels now and then, she might realize that standing right in front of her is a flesh and blood man willing to do his best to turn her highly unlikely romantic notions into reality.
It's not until Micah MacPherson stealthy purchases one of those books that he realizes he’s a far cry from the kind of man his Carrie Ann is dreaming about. He’s a rancher who has little time for courting a woman as it is. He doesn’t own fancy cravats, he can’t quote poetry, and he sure as hell isn’t on some social registry for highfalutin fops and dandies.
Micah loves Carrie Ann and he’s waited for her to grow up, but his patience is nearly at its end. She’s either going to marry him, or he’ll be pleased to give her what she so richly deserves and set his sights elsewhere. Surely somewhere there’s a woman who would appreciate a hard-working and devoted rancher with his eye on marriage.

EXCERPT:
Tossing out the rest of his coffee he went upstairs. He picked up her clothes and straightened the table where she’d written last night, his eyes skimming the words of her dime novel.
Hmm, she was remarkably explicit in describing there first time as man and wife.
“Mitchell touched her softly, his rough hands stroking her pale skin in the moonlight. Cynthia bit her lip and held her breath waiting for the pain she’d been told was coming. Instead she gasped in wonder at the pleasure stealing through her body.
He made small, satisfied noises. She tensed for a few moments until he whispered of her loveliness and how fortunate he felt to have made her his wife. His words soothed her. She felt valued, treasured. Surely, he would not hurt one so long sought after. She relaxed in his strong arms, trusting him to know what to do, trusting him to make the sweet ache that threatened to consume her go away.”
Straightening, Micah set the papers back down, brushing his damp hands on his jeans. He sure as hell hoped he was Mitchell and she was Cynthia!

And now Markie Morelli's new book Finn’s Plan: Book One, Find Her
Blurb:
“You can’t buy me, Finn,” she replied. “Money doesn’t mean that much to me. I’ll admit I’m attracted to you, but don’t try to ‘make me’ do anything. I may be small and easy to get along with, but I can be feisty as well. And stubborn,” she added, thoughtfully.
“I’m counting on that,” he answered cryptically.
Billionaire Finley Tremont is a man of action and he has plans, big plans for his new bride, Trisha. He wants more than a traditional marriage, much more. Putting on the brakes will be difficult for him, but that’s exactly what he needs to do. Each step must by measured, designed to make her crave the same things he does. He adores her, aches for her, and now that she’s agreed to become his wife, Finn intends to take Trisha into a world he’s only dreamed about.
As a brilliant CEO, Finn is used to overcoming obstacles to get what he wants, and he wants to be her husband and daddy. Let her be naughty and rebellious if she wants to; he hungers for the challenge and a chance to prove that he is more than master enough. In the end, he's going to win her undying love.

EXCERPT:
“Excuse me?”
“I said I don’t have pretty panties. At least not on me. I do own one pair, but I save them for special occasions and I didn’t think a ‘casual’ date was worth wearing them for. They are special, after all,” she stated a bit regally.
“I’m afraid I don’t understand,” he replied.
“Of course you don’t,” she said with a slightly intoxicated sneer. “Your underwear probably cost a thousand dollars a pair, mine are bargain basement, except for the special pair of panties of course,” she explained as though she were talking to an idiot.
“So, it wasn’t the thought of me spanking you or the possibility of my team seeing you getting spanked that bothered you,” he said in an incredulous voice. “It was that they might see your, shall we say, less than stunning panties?”
“Well, sort of, yes,” she admitted, waving her hand at him dismissively. “A girl likes to look pretty, even for something like that. Not that I believed you would do it, but still, you might have and it bothered me you would see them. Then later, when I realized it might not only be you, but nameless, countless other men, well, that is just not something I would allow.”
Finn smiled, a wicked and in her mind slightly evil smile and rose slowly from the couch.
“And you think you could have prevented it?” he asked, approaching her with measured steps.
Trish rushed across the room, stumbling once, and ended up behind the bar where she at least had something substantial between her and the man with a determined gleam in his eye. She picked up the bottle of wine.
“Put that down,” he ordered sharply.
Glaring at him for a moment, she then stuck out her tongue. It was on.
