From the New York Times bestselling author of the Marked Men series comes an irresistible and suspenseful romance between a tough Texas Ranger and his first love–a woman in danger who insists she doesn’t need his protection.
Hill Gamble is a model lawman: cool and collected, with a confident swagger to boot. Too bad all that Texas charm hasn’t gotten him anywhere in his personal life, especially since the only girl he ever loved has always been off-limits. But then Hill is assigned to investigate her father’s mysterious death, and he’s forced back to the town–and the woman–he left behind.
When Hill left Loveless, he broke Kody Lawton’s already battered heart. And now that he’s working on her father’s case, avoiding him is impossible. She can handle Hill and her unwanted feelings–until he puts his life on the line to protect her. Suddenly, Kody realizes that Hill could be taken away from her…for good.
Includes the bonus novella Cowboy to the Rescue by A.J. Pine!

“It was amazing how he managed to be both the calm and the storm in my life.”
Kody is my hero, she’s a badass who doesn’t sugarcoat her sass. I had a girl-crush on her while reading Justified and was very excited to get to know her better in Unforgiven. I was not disappointed.
As the author let me see into her past, introducing me to her demons, I fell even harder for Kody. She’s had a rough life and had to fight for everything she has, and she’s still fighting to keep her bar, the Barn. When the man that left and took her heart with him comes back to town to investigate her father’s death all those feelings she managed to bury deep resurfaced. “From the start I never knew what to do with the heat Hill brought with him when he crept into my thoughts.”
I loved the sexual tension that built as these two came face-to-face with their feelings for one another. I was afraid my Kindle might burst into flames while I waited for them to get past their…past. Before, she’d been off-limits, but now…game on. Let’s just say all that waiting and wanting builds up over time and when it finally gets released…you might need to stick your head in the freezer, just sayin’.
I can’t express how excited I am about where this story is going. I was totally surprised and now I’m bouncing in my seat thrilled at the direction it’s headed. I want to tell you so bad, but just wait, you’ll be as excited as I am. Squeeee! The line forms here…
