Elaina watches the hired gunman ride into her frontier town and knows trouble has arrived. The insolent stranger carries danger in his holster and something darker in his eyes. She tells herself she could never fall for such a man. Ren keeps his real motives hidden behind a mask of indifference, playing his role as the town's newest threat. Neither expects the pull between them. Neither plans for the heat that flares when their worlds collide. But the West is unforgiving, and fate has other plans. When circumstances rip them apart, Elaina discovers the depth of her longing for the rogue who captured her heart. The fire of their connection burns stronger than her fear, stronger than the forces trying to keep them apart.
