Cactus Flower

When a desperate Eulalie Gibb comes to Rio Penasco to escape a murderous maniac, no one, least of all Eulalie herself, believes she'll find the love of her life there.Eulalie, who grew up with her sister Pasty in her family’s traveling theatrical company in New York City, is almost prepared for life in Wild West—until she meets Nick Taggart. Then she’s pretty sure she’s come to the wrong place entirely.As for Nick—who barely escaped a family full of managing females with his hide intact—even if he believed in true love, which he doesn’t, he can’t imagine his personal love being the prickly Eulalie Gibb. He likes his life the way it is: living with his jolly old uncle Junius and being a blacksmith in the uncivilized and blessedly remote town of Rio Penasco.
