"can you tell which book from this scene?"
 
   I remembered another story from a book I had borrowed years ago. There's very little information to go with, but perhaps this book is known to some other reader.

The female lead is currently very poor but is working hard to support herself through a menial job . I believe her family (I only remember a mother) used to be rich and the mother refuses to accept her present poverty. I don't remember how, but one way or another, the mother uses the male lead's credit card or department store charge card and buys herself a fur coat (perhaps other things as well) and makes it appear as though the female lead went on the shopping spree instead (the mom may have forged her signature). This obviously enrages the male lead and destroys their tenuous, quite recent mutual understanding.

Sorry but that's all I remember. Hope it rings a bell.

Thanks!

This sounds like "All That Glitters". An excellent book that I have under Ms. Palmer's name Susan Kyle. It is a great story but I used a whole box of kleenix reading it.

No. There's another book where the mothers are best friends and the hero's mother is always inviting them to the ranch & buying the girls' mother new clothes. The mother let the daugther take the blame for some kind of accident (either a car or letting a bull out, some thing). The hero hates the mother cause she had an affair with is father that no one knows about it but him.

   I do believe the book I was looking for is Susan Kyle's All that Glitters but I have read and enjoyed Cowboy and the Lady many times.

I'm sorry that my copy of SK's All That glitters is back at home (in a different country!) and my rereading it will have to wait a few months.

I also came across Linda Howard's All That Glitters and reread it. Still loved it!

Thanks!
