Mustang Run, Texas, was nothing but trouble…

But still, Sean Ledger was coming home—to bad memories and an estranged father. And surprisingly, to a beautiful widow and her son in need of a haven. A loner, Sean didn't do family or forever, but protecting women was his cowboy code.

With a vengeful escaped convict on her tail, Eve Worthington had nowhere else to turn. Sean was fiercely loyal…but dangerously sexy. He'd guard her life, but he'd already stolen her heart. As the killer neared, Eve realized her fatal error in coming to the ranch. Now she either had to run again…or put her bodyguard lover in the line of fire.
