A single mother finds out she has a bounty on her head that her brother’s best friend is determined to collect in this sweetly suspenseful historical romance!
Charity Powers isn’t aware of her late husband’s debts, and she certainly isn’t trying to dodge payments when she and her four-year-old daughter board a train. They arrive in the cozy small town of Cedar Falls, Texas, to attend her brother’s wedding.
The moment Schmidt Barnes tracks her down, he realizes something more sinister is afoot. Unfortunately, his lovely target can’t afford a lawyer to defend her, and she’s way too proud to accept money from family or friends.
He can think of only one other way to provide the round-the-clock protection she and her daughter need — by marrying her. All that’s left is convincing the stubborn beauty that exchanging vows with a rugged bounty hunter is truly her best option.
This book was previously part of the Silverpines Series and has since been rewritten and re-edited to be part of the BRIDES OF CEDAR FALLS — uplifting historical romance stories full of faith, hope, love, and cowboys!
