Defending the Runaway's Heart: A Western Historical Romance Book

By Nora J. Callaway

"Are you always this stubborn?"
"Only when it comes to keeping you alive."

When a wealthy merchant promised to fund her education, Abigail Carter thought her prayers were answered. But the bright future was a lie, and the man who was supposed to save her intended to sell her to a saloon. With her heart hammered by betrayal, she flees into the night, knowing that to be caught is a fate worse than death.

Logan McCoy has been living as a ghost on his own ranch, traumatized by the day a violent attack took his family, leaving him with a heart of stone and a rifle that never leaves his side. When he sees Abigail, heavily injured and helpless, he doesn't want the danger that follows, but the ice around his heart is starting to melt. Will he become the shield she desperately needs?

As the distance between them begins to shrink, the silence of the ranch is no longer a void to be filled, but a sanctuary where their heartbeats finally match the same rhythm. When their stolen peace is shattered by a man who claims Abigail as his investment, will they let their pasts consume them, or will they finally stand their ground for love?
