A Man of Means by Diana Palmer

A Man Of Means (Long, Tall Texans) by Diana Palmer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Meredith Johns agrees to go to a Halloween party, against her better judgement, hoping to have a fun night in what has been a long time. Instead she ends up finding a man in the middle of a mugging and rescuing him, promising to stay by his side as he is sent to the hospital.

With one glance Rey Hart has decided the woman in front of him, is a streetwalker and thief. Allowing no room for her to explain, he has her carted off to jail as he watches his brother remain unconsciously from a blow to the head. Rey is about to swallow some pride, when his brother Leo hires Meredith to cook their coveted biscuits while she recovers from her own injuries. Everything about Meredith is driving him crazy, her intellect is unparalleled, her spunk a perfect match for him, and every time he thinks he has figured her out, she does something to catch him off guard. Rey he has no desire to marry and he knows an Innocent when he sees it, but he can't seem to keep his hands, lips, and desires to himself when she is around.

I liked this one a lot, he is not as mean as some of Diana Palmer's characters can be. Also love the addiction to biscuits, such a small thing but brings a lot of laughs.
