He'll do whatever it takes
To keep them safe
Duel McClain has lost everything he's ever loved: his wife,
his son, his sense of self. But when a strange twist of
fate—and a poker game he'll never forget—leaves an innocent
little girl in his care, Duel vows to defend his new family
to his very last breath. If only he knew a single thing
about taking care of babies...
Just as Duel swears his life can't get any more complicated,
a beautiful woman stumbles into the light of his campfire,
desperate for help. Jessie Foltry is hungry, tired, and
running for her life. She agrees to help Duel care for the
child in exchange for his protection, even as she fights to
guard her broken heart. But Duel will do whatever it takes
to make Jessie see that the Texas plains have more than one
kind of knight, and perhaps their salvation is closer than
either of them could have dreamed...
