rafflecopter during the tour.
From the moment Roan
Taggart picked up the pretty redhead at the Jackson Hole airport, his training
and experience told him she was spooked. She’s left New York City to visit the
Wind River Ranch, where Roan is a wrangler, and just as he can pick up a
horse’s mood, he can feel the tension coming off her body. And that
vulnerability is triggering all his protective instincts . . .
Shiloh Gallagher
likes the gray-eyed cowboy’s dry humor—and the Special Forces background that
lends him a stoic, powerful presence. But she’s been scarred by trauma and her
mother’s murder . . . and knows a strong man can be dangerous. She came to
wide-open Wyoming to flee a threat that’s left her unable to write her novels.
Now, as she rides horses with Roan and helps him build an isolated cabin, she’s
slowly letting down her guard. But danger has followed her west, and they won’t
have a future together unless they defeat a killer from her past . . .
Excerpt
“You’re afraid.”
Roan’s low deep voice flowed through her wall of fear. She
saw questions in his eyes. What was she afraid of? “Not of you.”
Nodding, Roan cupped her hands within his spare ones,
studying them. “The fear you have is deep, Shiloh.”
“It has nothing to do with you.” She saw that hooked,
one-cornered smile tug at his mouth. His eyes never left hers; as if he were
memorizing her, burning her into his mind, his heart. His soul? She didn’t want
to go there. Didn’t want to think beyond tonight.
“I think it does.”
Her lips thinned and she looked away, feeling the roughness
of his fingers upon hers. Her flesh was starving for his touch, tiny jolts of
heat flying continuously up her hand and into her wrist as he gently moved them
within his fingers. He handled her as if she were a priceless, fragile being
who might shatter if touched wrongly. Forcing herself to look up at Roan, she
saw his eyes had grown gentle with questions once more. The man inspired trust.
Now she was getting a taste of what he’d said earlier about villagers trusting
the A-team members. Roan cultivated it like breathing.
“I—” she stumbled, frowning. Shiloh felt ashamed in even
admitting it to Roan, but she pushed herself because he was a man of honor. He
presented himself exactly as he was. No games. No mask. No charade. Roan
deserved her honesty. “I don’t have a good track record with men,” she began in
a halting voice. “At a certain point, I break it off...” Shame swallowed her
whole and she couldn’t hold the sympathetic look that she saw come to Roan’s
gray eyes.
“Is that a promise? Or is it a warning, Darlin’?”
