Twenty-five-year-old Rose McMurray may be beautiful, smart, and capable of running her family's ranch at Whispering Mountain, but she's backed away from marriage three times without giving anyone reasons. Everyone thinks she is a coward, afraid of any adventure, including falling in love. She's never done a single wild or reckless thing in her life...until now.
Duncan McMurray, like Rose, was adopted into the family. As a Texas Ranger, he swears he'll never settle down and marry. He's been Rose's guardian angel since they were kids but for the first time in their lives he's the one who has caused her to be in danger. Somehow, he has to protect her from an outlaw gang determined to kill her without letting Rose know of the danger she's in. He's convinced that her heart can't take the stress if she knows...the only question is can his heart take the nearness of her.
When opposites collide the adventure begins...

Rose McMurray reluctantly leaves the comfort of Whispering Mountain for Fort Worth to be in an old friend's wedding. Rose soon realizes that something is wrong. She's sure that Tori doesn't want to get married, and she's going to figure out why. Danger lurks, but Texas Ranger and lawyer Duncan McMurray, Rose's cousin by marriage, is there to watch out for her. As the increasingly complex plot unfolds, it's not just Rose's life that Duncan worries about but also his growing romantic feelings for her. Several secondary romantic relationships add depth to this engaging story that showcases the hard realities of life in the Old West while tempering them with tenderness and understanding. VERDICT No one does Texas like Thomas, and this latest addition to one of her best-loved series is another gorgeous example. Thomas (Just Down the Road) lives in Texas.
