History, Romance, Humor--and Cowboys!--from Bestselling Author
Mary Connealy
In 1866 Colorado, Ethan Kincaid agrees to a marriage of convenience
with the same casual disregard he gives every decision. Audra
Gilliland, young mother of two, accepts his proposal because she
wants to stop being a burden to her newly married
stepdaughter.
And suddenly both of them are in far deeper than they'd
planned.
Ethan doesn't expect Audra to affect him so profoundly, and when
she begins to, he's terrified of the pain he's felt before when
someone he loved was seriously injured on his watch. He's
determined that his new wife will do as he says so he can keep her
safe from the dangers that lurk on their ranch.
Audra has been cared for all her life by one man or another--and
they've done a poor job of it. Now she's planning to stand up for
herself. And her new husband had better agree or get out of her
way!
What will it take to transform two wayward hearts fearful of
getting in too deep into two trusting hearts ready to risk falling
deeply in love?
