The author of The Sheriff “pens a lovely comeback story . . . With equal parts action, romance and compelling characters, she hits all the right notes” (RT Book Reviews, Top Pick).

A city girl like Beth Conrad has no business on Nick Burke’s Texas ranch. Even if the city girl in question is a DEA agent investigating gunrunners supposedly using Nick’s land as a staging ground. One look in her eyes and he can’t resist helping with her sure-to-fail mission . . . or his undeniable attraction to her. But Nick is fighting demons from his past, which leaves little room for romance.

Beth vows to help Nick face his PTSD, and Nick promises to pose as her fiancé to help her bring down the perps. But when circumstances force Nick to relive the traumatic shooting that altered his life—this time with Beth’s safety in the balance—he makes it his duty to ensure the outcome will be a whole lot happier.
