#1 New York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey's passionate new tale about a gunfighter running from his past who finds his future when he escorts a beautiful outlaw to her hanging. Featuring one of Lindsey's most intriguing heroes: the dangerous and mysterious Degan Grant from One Heart to Win. With his work in Montana completed now that the Callahan-Warren feud has ended in marriage rather than bloodshed, Degan Grant sets out for California because it is far away from the home he wants to forget-until the US Marshal who saved his life calls in a favor. All Degan has to do is apprehend three outlaws on the marshal's list and turn them over to the law. Easy enough, he figures, for a man no one wants to tangle with. But then a bold young woman crosses his path. Maxine grew up so pretty and attracted so much unwanted attention in her Texas hometown that events spiraled out of control. She will try anything to escape the handsome, enigmatic gunfighter who intends to turn her over to a corrupt sheriff who will hang her instead of putting her on trial. Saddled with a sassy, spirited young woman who insists she is innocent, Degan must hunt down a vicious killer and keep an old enemy at bay. But forced into intimate proximity with his beguiling prisoner, he finds his desire sparking into a wildfire of passion, and he can no longer deny that it is time for them to risk confronting their pasts so he can have a chance at a future with her in his arms forever.

      Gunslinger Degan Grant inspires dime novelists with his forbidding demeanor and deadly aim. Folks fear him--except for two women set on derailing his plans. Hired by Grant's ex-fiance Allison Montgomery, Pinkerton detectives track Grant to Montana Territory, where he pursues three outlaws on behalf of a fellow U.S. marshal. Grant's first capture, fugitive "Max" Dawson, proves to be the alluring Maxine, wanted in Texas for murder and bank robbery; she risks hanging without trial if turned over to authorities. More than chemistry bonds the wily hunter who skins what she shoots and the elegantly tailored gentleman who prefers room service. Each has fled injustices back home; visits to her Texas farmstead and his Chicago townhouse offer sensational revelations. In Lindsey's vivid 1880s setting, perils and desperadoes elicit displays of character and competence that deepen the honorable couple's connection. Framed by episodes of caretaking and rescue, steamy (but not graphic) lovemaking scenes register as truly romantic. Ted Branson's stellar narration will delight even readers impatient with the initially slow pacing, who are soon to be rewarded with witty verbal tussling, travel, and adventure, after which virtue and justice prevail. VERDICT Recommended for all historical romance collections.--Linda Sappenfield, Round Rock P.L., TX
