Rico Fraser has spent the last three years seeking revenge
for the rape and murder of his mother. He's heading back to
Arizona where he learns that the Slatter gang has raided a
ranch and kidnapped the owner's daughter, Jennifer Burke.
Rico burns with desperation and will not let the murderer
slip through his fingers this time.
As Rico rescues Jennifer and safely sees her back to the
fort, he knows he wounded Slatter in the process. But how
badly? Is he dead? Is his search finally over? Rico's
pursuit of Slatter has driven away any thought of a
relationship with a woman, until he can put Slatter behind
him. That is until now, when this beautiful, strong and
feisty auburn haired-beauty entered his life and slipped
under his skin. Rico loves spunk and Jennifer has enough of
it to addle his brain and make his heart skip a beat. It is
a match made in heaven. Rico just has to convince Jennifer
of that.
HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO is the fifth historical romance in
Ana Leigh's outstanding Fraser series. If you have

Bestselling author Ana Leigh continues
the popular Fraser series with their cousin Rico -- an
expert scout determined to settle a score against the most
merciless outlaw in all
Arizona.
Rico Fraser would love to
return to the Fraser clan's California home, find a good
woman, and start a family of his own. But first he must
deal out some frontier justice to Ben Slatter, who brutally
murdered Rico's mother three years earlier. So when Slatter
and his gang abduct a young ranch heiress, Rico seizes his
chance to bring his adversary in -- dead or
alive.
Breathtakingly lovely Jenny Burke was born into
privilege, and sentenced to a life devoid of
excitement...until she is kidnapped. When Rico Fraser
courageously saves her from Slatter, Jenny is indebted to
the tough, rugged hero -- but also very curious about the
arrogant bounty hunter with revenge in his eyes. And as her
innocent awareness grows into passion, she realizes Rico
Fraser has changed her life forever. But can a man
determined to fulfill a brutal vow at all costs find room
in his heart for love?
