Her Bodyguard

By E.E. Burke

Book Overview

A soldier with a secret. A daughter with a quest. Can their steam-powered chemistry thrive on the frontier?

Kansas, 1870 -- Buck O'Connor rides a horse named regret. Aimless and alone after a brutal loss to the North, he risks heading cross-country to reconcile with an estranged kinsman by helping in a bloody battle to wreck a new railroad. But after he saves a beautiful widow from an overturned carriage, he's shocked to discover she's the wealthy villain he swore to sabotage.

Amy Langford is desperate to fulfill her father's legacy. And after a series of targeted mishaps, she gratefully accepts the protection of a strapping cowboy against the violent settlers. But she's up to her neck in the frantic race to finish construction, and she can ill-afford to succumb to her feelings for her new bodyguard.

With Buck falling hard for the determined promoter he's supposed to destroy, he's terrified his hidden past will cost him her trust. And as Amy puts everything on the line to honor her father, her guilt demands she cut the handsome stranger loose before he's the next victim of a cutthroat project.

Will their unexpected love be permanently derailed in the name of progress? Or will an unknown enemy end their lives before they find a way to stop him?
