    About this ebook



    After nearly a lifetime in witness protection, Emma Graves depends on the anonymity of her false identity. But when her parents die under suspicious circumstances, and Emma is framed for murder, all security is gone. There's nothing to do but run.

    Cop–turned–rancher Jake Kincaid is an unlikely defender. Why would an ex–cop believe an accused killer? Still, Jake makes Emma feel safe. With his drive to protect, she knows staying on his ranch endangers them both–yet now that her heart's engaged, she's not sure she can walk away.
