Jim Slade has his hands full. Not only does he own one of the largest ranches in the fledgling Republic of Texas, but he is a long-time secret agent for President Sam Houston. To further complicate matters, he begins to suspect his aristocratic fiancée is a spy for the Mexican government eager to reconquer the Republic. Slade does not need any more trouble…but he gets it when Chastity Charlene McAllister crashes into his life.
“Gone-to-Texas” in search of her ner-do-well brother, Charlee is not much larger than her scrofulous tomcat, Hellfire. The pint-sized Missouri hill girl turns life on Bluebonnet Ranch upside down, gets tangled up with a British agent playing his own version of “Texas Hold’em,” finds herself kidnapped by a vicious comanchero, and drives an enraged Slade to distraction. He alternately wants to strangle her or make love to her, and cannot decide which until his prickly Cactus Flower tempts him once too often.
Charlee’s fate, as well as that of the Republic is on the line, and a man has to do what a man has to do.
Cactus Flower GonetoTexas Trilogy Book 1 edition by Shirl Henke Romance eBooks
Jim Slade, rancher and secret agent for Sam Houston, takes in the sister of one of his former hands when upon her arrival from Missouri she discovers that her brother is dead. Charlee McAllister is a wild woman. She grew up hunting, skinning animals and basically running amok. She was never interested in looking like a woman until she met handsome Jim. But Jim is besotted with a former love of his, Tomasina Carver, now a widow. Tomasina is determined to not let Jim go this time; she is beautiful and devious. Jim has no interest in Charlee until he discovers her beauty and "womanly charms" hiding under her boy's attire. Then he becomes a frustrated, hot for Charlee male. Charlee aggravates him to no end and having her in his home as a cook for his men strains his libido even more. Dealing with her temper and hoydenish ways, not to mention her bad cat, Hellfire, that she has adopted, leave his patience thin. Charlee wants Jim to see her as a woman and she soon realizes that he does. A good book, the secondary characters, not to mention Hellfire, are great also.Product details

Cactus Flower GonetoTexas Trilogy Book 1 edition by Shirl Henke Romance eBooks Reviews
This book has a lot of emotions. The interactions between the hero and heroine are filled with passion, chemistry, and tension. I definitely reccommend this book. Shirl Henke is a wonderful author. She knows how to draw the reader in her world. Must read!
I would read anything by Shirley Henke. Her writing style draws you into the story and makes you feel like you're part of it!! Just enough sensuality without being vulgar.
A very good book can't wait to read #2 ,
Just wasn't my kind of book. I've read other Shirl Henke's books and enjoyed them
I read so many of these Indian stories and by the time I'm asked to write a review, I have to stop and think of who the characters were in this book. I enjoy this author as I've mentioned before. Keep them coming, Shirl
Fantastic second in the series.
Explosive characters, great espionage with the "baddies" getting just desserts!
This is deception at its best. Character are hot and wanting, sparks fly, and both are blind to the obvious.
Must read!
The historical background of this book was good, and the characters were interesting and believable (good ones and bad ones) with the exeption of the "heroine," i.e., Chastity Charlene. She ruined it for me. It irritated me from page one that she was called Charlee because I prefer feminine and pretty names. However, the character herself annoyed me greatly. I disliked her ridiculous cursing and extreme boyishness and the fact that although we are shown that she was educated and intelligent, she chose to behave as if she was illbred and stupid. She was not cute, funny or endearing in any way. I also did not find her physically attractive because of her freckles(ugh!)and weird "tan" colored hair as it was described. There was simply nothing about her that I liked or felt empathy with or admired. I am willing to try another of the author's books, however, because of the good background research she used in this one the way her other characters were well drawn. But Charlee? Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!
