Even in the wide open spaces of Texas, secrets find a
place to hide…in the heart of a shy, determined woman;
behind the hard, rugged exterior of a DEA agent; and in
the dangerous world of drug smuggling.
Rodrigo Ramirez is sent undercover as an itinerant laborer
on Gloryanne Barnes's stepbrother's farm in Jacobsville,
where he's looking to bust a new and vicious cartel
operating south of the border. Gloryanne is smart, savvy
and fiercely independent, but her job has put her in
danger from the same criminal Rodrigo is investigating.
She's drawn to the enigmatic new farmhand, Rodrigo, a man
who is much more than he seems, and who stirs a desire
that leaves her breathless. But secrets are about to
shatter all their lives, for better, for worse…and maybe
forever.
Gloryanne's sweet innocence is too much temptation for a
tormented man. Confused and bitter about love, driven by
his dangerous job and searching for answers, Rodrigo is
not sure if his reckless offer of marriage is just a means
to completing his mission—or something more. But as
Gloryanne's bittersweet miracle and Rodrigo's double life
collide, two people learning just what it means to trust
must face the truth about each other, and decide if
there's a chance for the future they both secretly desire.
