Deidre Nelson has never forgotten the man who stole her
heart so effectively a decade ago. When circumstances bring
her back to Ventura, Texas to look after her parents’ B&B,
she prepares to face Jonas Mendez, the sexy wrangler-turned
sheriff, with growing anticipation.
Deidre’s engaging smile and seductive gaze has haunted
Jonas for ten years. But life’s cruel ironies pepper his
past, leaving him guarded and wary. He vows to keep his
interaction with Deidre strictly professional while she’s
in Ventura.
But when vandalism at the B&B turns life-threatening, Jonas
finds himself intimately involved with the one woman he has
always wanted but never touched.
As a decade of built-up anticipation becomes reality,
suddenly the line between protector and possessor begins to
blur.
