The Rancher's Bride

Ellie Mason has been running for years. Fleeing a cult-like church and a pastor who claimed she belonged to him, she arrives in Whiskey Ridge, Tennessee, with nothing but eighty-three dollars and a desperate need to disappear. She finds a job in a diner, intending to keep her head down. But she didn't count on Beau Whitlock.

Massive, silent, and grieving a wife he lost nine years ago, the cattle rancher is a man who knows how to stay perfectly still. But the moment Ellie sits across from him, something dangerous and fiercely protective wakes up inside him. Beau doesn't just offer her a place to hide. He offers absolute, uncompromising sanctuary, stripping away her fears with a demanding passion that brings them both back to life.

But Ellie's past isn't done with her. And when the man hunting her arrives in Whiskey Ridge, he's going to learn the hard way--you don't touch a rancher's bride.
