They rode together against the law... and straight into each other's arms. He was a gunman with blood on his name and nowhere left to belong. She was a desperate woman running from a past that wanted her dead. Their meeting was an accident. Their alliance was necessity. What followed was danger, gunfire, and a hunger neither dared admit. With posses closing in and killers riding their trail, every mile brings another ambush-another body in the dust. He kills to protect her. She risks everything to save him. And somewhere between the crack of revolvers and the thunder of hooves, passion ignites as fierce as the land itself. Bullets tear through the night. Lips meet under stolen stars. Trust is bought with blood. In a West ruled by iron and violence, love is the deadliest gamble of all-and the only prize worth dying for. A blazing pulp Western romance of gunsmoke, grit, and outlaw desire.
