Colorado Territory, 1870. With her father dead and brother lost in the Civil War, Audra vows to protect the family ranch. But when violent men invade the homestead, she seeks out a ranch hand for security. She never expected the secretive man to capture her heart.
Lawman Lucas Blake is hot on the trail of a dangerous game. Working on Audra's ranch is the perfect cover until the desperate outlaw's intentions put the woman in peril. As the threat increases, so does his attraction to the independent young beauty.
Will a deadly bandit put an end to their romance, or can Audra and Lucas survive their untamed love?
Loving Lucas is the first standalone book in The Ladies of Cascade Creek series of historical Western romances. If you like rugged heroes, self-reliant women, and nonstop action, then you'll love AnnMarie Oakes' spicy saga.
