About This Book
It's June, 1888, when Kate Wellington is taken hostage by outlaw Frank Michaels. The sun's high in the Texas sky when he turns her into an unwilling accomplice in a robbery that leaves four men dead in a San Antonio bank.
After escaping from him, Kate sees her likeness on a wanted poster and realizes she's wanted by the Texas Rangers and the cold-blooded killer! With nothing but the clothes on her back, she heads southwest on foot, hoping to find safety in Mexico.
Then one cold, dark night, she stumbles, hungry and exhausted, into the campsite of Josh Neville, on his way home from business in San Antonio. His heart goes out to the terrified woman who claims not to remember her name or how she came by the cuts and bruises covering her face and torso. His gut tells him to stay away from the secretive beauty, but his heart compels him to escort her to the Mexican border.
Along the trail, she claims her name is Dinah Theodore, and he finds himself torn between feelings of fondness and suspicion. When she breaks her ankle during a ferocious thunderstorm, he feels duty-bound to bring her to his ranch to recuperate...and unwittingly lures the outlaw right to his door.
Trust and forgiveness are put to the ultimate test in this wild West adventure that's rich with Texan vistas, laughter, tears, family loyalty, danger.
