Publisher Description
Orphaned at sixteen, Sara Rawlings is rescued by her father's distant cousin, Sam Cantrell, who takes her to his rancho in San Felipe.
There, Sara meets Sam's son, Yancy. The attraction is instant, but Sara is already half-in-love with the widowed Sam.
Then Sara finds Yancy's ex-fiancÈe with a dagger through her heart. When she returns to the scene with Sam, the dagger is missing. Sara reluctantly agrees she was mistaken and Yancy leaves to join the Union Army.
Sam prepares to join the Rebels, but first convinces Sara to marry him so she is provided for should he not return.
When Sara and Yancy meet again, the rancho in tatters from the war, the attraction between them is just as powerful, and equally unwanted. But with Sam gone and someone attempting to end their lives, Sara and Yancy must join forces before love can chase the darkness from their broken hearts.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Busbee ( Each Time We Love ) reaffirms her long-held place at the top of her genre with this classic romance formula of abduction, escape, seduction and submission. The paradigmatic heroine is the orphaned, destitute Sara Rawlings, who is taken in by Sam Darnell, a distant relative. Sam marries Sara, making her heir to all his holdings--with the exception of Casa Paloma, a Texas ranch that rightfully belongs to his estranged son, Yancy. But when Sam dies, leaving Sara a virgin bride, Yancy learns that Casa Paloma is held in trust for the children Sara might have, and the only way to reclaim his estate is to marry her. Sara loves Yancy--but she also believes he may have murdered Sam's second wife. Highly visual narrative brings to life Texas of the late 1800s, from the once lush and prosperous plantations to Mexican rancheras the size of small towns. Advertising.
