Terms of Surrender

by Shirl Henke

Overview

THE GAMBLER

The roguishly handsome Welshman Rhys Davies owned half of Starlight, Colorado, within weeks of riding into town. But there was one "property" he would give all the rest to possess.

THE LADY

Victoria Lawton, the glacially beautiful daughter of Starlight’s first family, detested Rhys’s flamboyant arrogance. But worse yet, she was shocked by her own most unladylike response to his compelling masculinity.

THE TERMS

To win the lady, the gambler would wager his heart, risk his life…and hope that the devil did indeed take care of his own.

About the Author

SHIRL HENKE lives in St. Louis, where she enjoys gardening in her yard and greenhouse, cooking holiday dinners for her family and listening to jazz. In addition to helping brainstorm and research her books, her husband Jim is “lion tamer” for their two wild young tomcats, Pewter and Sooty, geniuses at pillage and destruction.
Shirl has been a RITA finalist twice, and has won three Career Achievement Awards, an Industry Award and three Reviewer’s Choice Awards from Romantic Times.
“I wrote my first twenty-two novels in longhand with a ballpoint pen—it’s hard to get good quills these days,” she says. Dragged into the twenty-first century by her son Matt, a telecommunication specialist, Shirl now uses two of those “devil machines.” Another troglodyte bites the dust.
