All it took was one touch...
Tracy Garrett returns to Texas, 1847, with the story of a love that breaks all the rules...
A TEXAS PROMISE…
Jaret Walker is a loner, a gun for hire with a heart of ice. He’s never had anyone to call his own, and he
likes it that way. But when a promise made to a friend leads him on a ride through the desert and to remote
Two Roses Ranch where he meets Isabel Bennett, the woman he’s supposed to protect, all he can think of
is making her his. She’s the kind of woman a rough-riding cowboy like him can never have. But her hot
gaze tempts him like no other woman has before...
A SCORCHING DESIRE…
The moment Isabel Bennett lays eyes on Jaret Walker, she remembers the dreams she’s denied for so long.
She’s sworn never to marry. It’s the only way to protect her ranch. But when Walker rides into her life, she
decides to let herself taste what she’s giving up—a passion that burns through her with each kiss—and
a desire that won’t be denied...

SHELTER FROM THE STORM…
A blizzard blows Texas Ranger Jake McCain to Rachel Hudson’s cabin and trouble is right behind him.
He’s badly wounded. Taking care of him is the right thing to do, but she knows the local gossips won’t see it that way.
Suddenly, everything Rachel’s fought for is at stake—and the past she’d hoped to escape
looms over her future. Still, when Jake turns his dark gaze on her, all she wants is his strong,
seductive touch…
A WOMAN TO CALL HIS OWN …
Jake McCain has never stayed in one place. A home and a family aren’t for the likes of a man accustomed
to the rough life of the trail. But when he sees the trouble she’s in, he can’t leave her behind. Not when her
innocent kisses burn straight into his soul, and the sight of her smile is the only bounty he cares to
collect…
