Burning Desire [Desire, Oklahoma: The Found Fathers 4‪]‬

[Siren Everlasting Classic: Cowboys Historical Romantic Suspense Romance, with BDSM elements, light spanking, HEA] With her home burned to the ground and her family dead, Esmerelda Johnson headed to the Circle T ranch to find safety. After riding all day and through the night, she found herself caught in a thunderstorm, which spooked her horse into throwing her and dragging her with him across the rough ground. The men she'd seen in the distance appeared, one of them jumping from his own saddle and using nothing but brute force, forced Lucky to a halt. Duke Faulkner held her close and rode back to the ranch to tend her injuries. Finding it impossible to let anyone else care for her, he claimed her as his own. Fighting his guilt for not being able to save his first wife, he found Esmerelda's strength and bravery irresistible. Shaken by the threat to her from the man who'd killed her family, Duke vowed to protect her--no matter the cost. Lana Dare is a Siren-exclusive author.
