The Keeper (Redemption Ridge‪)‬

Sabotaged brakes didn't kill Rueben Sanchez, but waiting for his assailants' trial to start just might. A potential witness for the prosecution can't explore his lusty feelings for the sheriff who saved him, but that doesn't stop his imagination from running wild. When the delay threatens to stretch on for years, Rueben feels his dreams slipping out of reach. Should he surrender or fight for his man?

Pressure and scrutiny are nothing new to Seth, but shouldering his duties has never felt like a burden until they keep him from the man he wants. Cracking an unsolved murder, safeguarding a high-profile trial, and winning re-election should be enough to keep him busy. But he can't stop thinking about the weekend he shared with Rueben. Are they as good together as Seth remembers, or is his memory swayed by the allure of the forbidden?

Late-night phone calls and shared secrets lead to a lakeside cabin rendezvous. But one encounter isn't enough, and the two men will risk everything to explore their bond. When a series of chilling events rock the county, Rueben and Seth must put more than their hearts on the line because one misstep could prove fatal.

Contains mature themes.
