BLURB
When a man who believes he’ll never have a home and family…
Former U.S. Marshal Jericho Hawken should have been shepherding a wagon train to new territory, but he unwillingly left them vulnerable to a vicious raider. The murder of the settlers he was supposed to be guarding is the hardest thing he’s ever had to face…until he meets the sister of one of the settlers.
…finds a woman who has lost everything…
Instead of a joyous reunion with her brother, Maryland Henry has come to River’s Bend to take responsibility for her three orphaned nieces. Fired from her teaching position and with no other family on whom to rely, Mary believes Jericho Hawken is responsible for all her woes. Or is he what she’s been searching for all along?
It takes a lot of forgiveness and a few fireworks to realize that together their dreams can come true.
EXCERPT
He watched Mary’s throat work as
she battled back tears that made her blue eyes seem huge in her pale face. When
she squared her shoulders and lifted her chin, he knew his time for avoiding
the truth was over.
“What happened, Mr. Hawken?”
Self-loathing threatened to choke
him. “I’m not sure.”
She glanced at Matt, then
returned her piercing gaze to Jericho. “I don’t understand. Did it happen at
night? Was it too dark for you to see?”
He gulped down the liquid in his
glass and carefully set the crystal aside when he wanted to hurl it against the
stone hearth. “I wasn’t there.”
“Where—”
“I was in jail.”

Thanks for sharing, Tracy. I'm hooked. I'd loved to win. But if I don't, I'll definitely be picking up a copy.
ReplyDeleteThe excerpt is short and quite intriguing. Would love to read more.

I'm so glad your story is out now, Tracy. A woman who has lost everything can be quite a handful because she has nothing left to lose. Your hero must be top dollar to win her over. I wish you all the best.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great premise to a story that sounds fabulous. Best to you. Doris
ReplyDeleteThis is such a wonderful story. I always love your characters so much!
