Wildest Passion

by Paula Fairman

Beautiful and beguiling Courtney O'Niel is torn from the wealthy embrace of New York society and thrust into a maelstrom of scandal and endless intrigue. She leaves behind a dazzling gambling salon for the Oregon wilderness, selling herself as a mail-order bride to lusty and womanless lumberjacks to escape a false murder charge.
Swept into a tempestuous whirlwind of sensuality, dark passions haunt her every move, as a cruel New York judge tries to kill her, a cavalier gambler tries to keep her, an arrogant sea captain loves her and a simple northwoodsman marries her. But Courtney's unwavering instincts and soaring dreams overwhelm her false pride, as a vivid legacy of triumphant love becomes hers forevermore.

About the author

Paula Fairman was a pseudonym for author Paul W. Fairman. However, he only wrote a couple of romances--to great success--before passing away in 1977 while in the middle of writing a third book.

After Fairman's death, his publishers at Pinnacle wanted to keep the name alive, so they used a ghostwriter, Western author Robert Vaughan to continue writing books as Paula Fairman. He went on to write about a dozen under that name.
