United by chance, bound by fate, consumed
by passion.
Miranda Hayes has lost everything—her family, her
husband, her home. Orphaned and
then widowed, desperate to find a safe haven, she sets
out to cross a savage land
alone…until chance brings her face-to-face with notorious
gunslinger Jake Harkner.
Hunted by the law and haunted by a brutal past, Jake has
spent a lifetime fighting
for everything he has. He’s never known a moment’s
kindness…until fate brings him
to the one woman willing to reach past his harsh exterior
to the man inside. He
would die for her. He would kill for her. He will do
whatever it takes to keep her
his.
Spanning the dazzling West with its blazing deserts and
booming gold towns, Jake
and Miranda must struggle to endure every hardship that
threatens to tear them
apart. But the love of an outlaw comes with a price…and
even their passion may not
burn bright enough to conquer the coming darkness.
