Everything is just fine until a dead body turns up and Texas Ranger Gunner Wilson is sent to investigate. The guy just happens to be her ex and one of the reasons that Laney was PRETTY RECKLESS.
Gunner Wilson is trouble, and Laney is not about to let those good looks and straining muscles get her in trouble again. She wants a contented, steady life with her fiancΓ©. She really does, but it seems Gunner has the ability to undermine her resolve not to mention her libido.
But as the bodies pile up along with the lies, she is glad that she is allied with her ex even if once again she is feeling PRETTY RECKLESS. Now, if she can get her heart and senses where they should be things might just work out. She's just not sure which way things are going to work out.

Welcome to Pistol Rock, Texas where everyone knows secrets
last about as long as the sporadic west Texas rain

Laney will be damned if she lets Gunner trample all over
her
turf and her chance at a quiet, contented life. His

libido was only outdone by her constant urge to butt heads
with him. But when the bodies start to pile up, Laney has
to
ask the lethal bad boy for a handβand a truce in exchange
for his help.
Having an ex-boyfriend as an ally might not be the best
idea, but Laney has always been pretty recklessβ¦
