A LONE STAR LOVER
They live to protect. They live to fight for honor and justice. They live to love the women who have captured their souls. These are the Sons of Texas, from New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant.
In The Legend, Callie Reed doesn’t need a man to protect her. An expert sharpshooter and renegade hacker, this Texas-born spitfire’s got the skills and the courage to stand up to any danger—no matter how deadly. But when she becomes the target of a shadowy organization known as the Saints, Callie is forced to team up with the one man she can’t outshoot: the gorgeous, and infuriating, Lone Star legend named Wyatt Loughman…
A Delta Force Colonel with a rock-hard body and stone-cold heart, Wyatt has been teasing and tormenting Callie since they were playmates on his family’s ranch. Of course, he’s wildly attracted to the fiery, strong-willed Callie. But he’s always hidden his feelings behind a wall of Texas tough and military cool, even as he’s burning up with desire. Can Wyatt save Callie’s life—without putting her love in the line of fire?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Grant's third Sons of Texas contemporary romantic thriller (after The Protector) pours on the adrenaline from the beginning and never lets up. Feisty Callie Reed found the family of her heart with the Loughman clan, and she fell hard for Wyatt Loughman, a member of Delta Force and one of the three Loughman brothers; but after his mother was murdered, Wyatt erected emotional barriers that Callie couldn't climb. When his father is kidnapped, Wyatt returns home to Texas and joins his brothers in an effort to find him. They uncover a clandestine global organization called the Saints who will stop at nothing to get their hands on the Loughman patriarch's knowledge of biological weapons. As the tensions mount, Wyatt realizes that he can't deny that his heart belongs to Callie, but danger keeps getting in the way of romance. Grant's high-octane romantic thriller matches dramatic action with deft plotting and expert characterization. But the tale ends on yet another cliffhanger, which will annoy readers who hoped for tidy resolution at last.
