Plot Summary of Cowboy Cupid
"Jake Randall decides that if there are ever going to be any little Randalls to inherit the Randall ranch he will have to find wives for his three brothers. All the Randall men are gun-shy when it comes to marriage because of Jake's disasterous failed marriage. When a direct approach doesn't work with the women he approaches he decides to be sneaky.
   He decides that the ranch house they all share needs to be redecorated and he has three firms in Denver send 'single' women to his Wyoming ranch to work up estimates and proposals on what should be done to the ranch house. Instantly one of his brother's is attracted to Megan Chase but it's the wrong brother. Jake wants the first wife to go to his brother Pete, who has been moping around since he broke up with his last girlfriend.
   Instead it is Chad, the youngest brother who falls for Megan. The strike sparks off each other anytime they are in the same room but both of them are marriage shy. It isn't until Megan and the other two decorators fly home to Denver that Chad realizes he can't live without her. Without so much as a change of clothes Chad flies off after Megan, determined to bring her back as his bride."
