About this ebook

Private investigator Annabel Brannigan’s mother was a brave Union Spy during the war, so she’s confident she has what it takes to track down her childhood friend Brett McCallum in the wilds of the Arizona Territory and rescue him from whatever trouble drove him to flee his wealthy St. Louis home. Annabel has secretly loved Brett for years and is determined to save him from the ruthless men hunting him out west – but can she save herself from Roy Steele, the rugged, dangerous gunslinger also tracking Brett? When Steele protects her from vicious desperadoes, they’re forced to travel together. Though Annabel has lied and told Steele she’s Brett’s fiancée, she finds herself drawn to the handsome gunslinger against her will. Yet Steele’s heart seems to be made of stone. And he wishes it was. Because Roy Steele is a man of secrets, and a woman slowing him down is the last thing he needs. But he can’t keep the beautiful, courageous Annabel out of his mind – or out of his arms. As danger surrounds them, he wants only two things -- to keep Annabel safe – and to have her for his own….
