Description

A desperate aunt on the run. A wary rancher with questions. A deadly threat that could destroy their fragile new family.

Bernadette "Blaze" Cook is determined to save her young nephew after her brother-in-law murders her sister in a drunken rage. With the killer in jail, Blaze seizes her chance to disappear, answering a mail-order bride ad and taking her nephew to safety in Texas. She tells no one where she's going, hoping to keep the boy hidden from further harm.

Andrew "Drew" Wagner never expected his new bride to arrive with a toddler in tow. Though surprised, he's willing to open his heart and home to both—if only Blaze would be honest about her past. As Drew's suspicions fade and his feelings deepen, the real danger emerges: Blaze's brother-in-law escapes from prison and is determined to find them.

With their lives and newfound love on the line, Blaze and Drew must stand together to protect their family from a vengeful enemy. Will their courage—and their hearts—be enough to survive?

Perfect for readers who love western historical romance, mail order bride romance, romantic suspense westerns, protective hero stories, runaway heroine romance, found family romance, and Texas frontier love stories.
