__West Texas, 1885__
__Lily Chastain and her brother only wanted to get their money back...__
Sneaking into the hotel room of one of the outlaws who robbed and killed their father should have been easy. No one was supposed to get hurt-especially not Ransom Starr, sheriff of Willow Grove. To make amends, she and her brother take responsibility for Ransom's care.

__A former detective and Texas Ranger, Ransom had been injured before...__
But never this badly. He's dealt with all kinds of desperados, but when the doctor says he might never walk again, Ransom faces an even bigger challenge. As he strives to heal, Lily touches his heart in ways he's never known, and he worries about his future.

Will he be able to provide for a wife and family? And will her desire for vengeance destroy their chance at love?
