    About this ebook

    Travis and Janie are engaged, with her father welcoming Travis more than his own son. But when they find out Travis' real last name, her father threatens to kill Travis if they try to marry. Janie cancels the marriage to save Travis, but he won't agree. He fights not only for his love, but for his life. Little did he expect to find out how Janie's father was connected to his parent's deaths.
