Secrets from the past…

and a child in peril.

Sawyer Cantrell never expected to thwart a kidnapping, much less save the son of his ex-fiancée. Texas Ranger Mallory Foster is back in Cedar Hollow to clear her late brother’s name of murder, but someone is determined to stop her. Narrowly evading the gunmen on their trail, Sawyer insists on helping investigate the case that broke up their engagement. But when Mallory reveals that Sawyer is her child’s father, the stakes grow even higher. With an unknown enemy willing to murder again to keep the past buried, can Sawyer and Mallory survive long enough to uncover the real killer?
