Facing the Fire

? FIVE MONTHS JUST WASN'T LONG ENOUGH. ? After practically kidnapping her boss's baby to protect Violet from a drunken gunman seeking revenge, Maggie is finally back in Masterson County. It's time to give Violet back to the sexy-as-sin single father who still burns Maggie with just one look. The same man who broke her heart after that one beautiful night they spent together. The night that never should have happened. ? HE ONLY HAS ONE CHANCE TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT. ? Wyoming Highway Patrol investigator Clint Gunderson nearly lost the two people he loved most to the damned job. Once this last case wrapped up, he was leaving law enforcement forever. And getting his family back. His infant daughter—and Maggie Tyler. Maggie, the woman who haunts his dreams at night. He has a lot to make up for with that woman. But while he's convincing the woman he loves to give him a second chance, someone else is watching. Someone far too close to Maggie. Someone who wants something only Clint can give them. Something that if revealed will make all Clint values go up in flames—and take Maggie away from him forever. FACING THE FIRE is a full-length, small-town western romantic suspense novel and part of the Masterson County connected stand-alone series. The Masterson County series contains scenes of violence, adventure, occasional dark criminal behavior, moderate cursing—especially by villains, a few mild-to-moderate love scenes, and references to subject matter that may distress some readers. The Masterson County books contain the same level of descriptive content as a typical crime drama on network television—but good always wins out in the end, guaranteed.
