‘You just can’t do better than a Diana Palmer story to make your heart lighter and smile brighter.’ ? Fresh Fiction

Five years ago, Judd Dunn, a hard-edged Texas Ranger, put Christabel Gaines?s father behind bars ? where he belonged. But Judd?s involvement in Crissy?s life didn?t end there. With their jointly owned ranch on the verge of bankruptcy, Judd wed her in name only, promising to save their land and vowing to ignore the sexual tension between them.

Now, just when Judd decides to release Crissy from their sham of a marriage, he is stunned by a brutal enemy. Someone who is willing to commit unspeakable evil by preying upon Judd?s greatest weakness ? his wife. No longer a starry-eyed schoolgirl, Crissy has become a smart, fearless woman with unfulfilled desires. And she will do anything in the name of love, including taking a bullet for her husband.

With their lives at stake, Crissy and Judd confront their darkest demons, their new rivals and their deepest desires, and face up to a mutual destiny they can no longer outrun.
