Book three in the Intrinsic Values series

Jonas Abrams, bookish historian, has never met anyone like hard-hitting Texas Ranger Gabe Ryland before...

After a false accusation derailed his academic career, reserved history professor Jonas Abrams left teaching, and left town. Taking a job at San Antonio' s Intrinsic Value antiques store gave him the confidence to work with people again, and he' s even ventured back into college teaching and volunteering at a local museum... but none of that could have prepared him for Gabe ‘ Rye' Ryland.

Texas Ranger Rye is an old-school lawman to his core. When his partner is killed on his watch, Rye' s instincts tell him there' s more to things than meets the eye, and he burns to investigate. Facing a suspension for dereliction of duty, he accepts a b******t assignment out of town... to San Antonio, the place he intends to dig around for answers.

Rye is not just out of Jonas' league— he' s out of his comfort zone, and not the kind of person Jonas would ever have imagined he' d fall for. But he does, hard, from the get-go, just as Rye does him. The academic and the Ranger shouldn' t make sense as a couple, but they do. Or at least, they were just starting to, until the case Rye is investigating heats up to flashpoint, engulfing them both in the flames...
