BookQW = RAIN


RED RIVER CROSSING
Men of the Double K, Book 1.

Justice brought them together. The past could tear them apart. 

If only this assignment hadn’t brought her into Texas. What were the chances that she’d cross paths with that scoundrel Beau Kennedy? The day he walked away from her in the dead of the night some ten years earlier was as fresh now as it had been then.
Jess believed every word he’d ever written to her. Every promise he’d whispered in her ear those days they’d spent together in Dodge City. Everything about him was ingrained in her heart.
She’d never loved another. No man could take his place, no matter how much anguish Beau had caused her. He had left a scar on her heart forever with his scarlet letters and unfulfilled promises.
So why did her heart pound as they drew closer to Texas?
Why couldn’t she shake his ghost from her life? His twinkling whiskey eyes haunted her at night when she fell asleep. His lips had branded hers with kisses as hot as fire. She was his, even if his brand couldn’t be seen.
He’d left without an explanation other than a note saying he cared for her deeply. That he was protecting her by leaving. That was the last she’d heard of him or his name.
       Then she’d met Hollie Chandler and, under her guidance, became a Pinkerton operative. For many years, Jess would follow a lead on Beau only to find a dead end. There was no trace of a cowboy fitting his description; it was as if he’d disappeared. While Hollie understood Jessica’s need to find him, she’d encouraged her to give up the cause. And five years ago she had.
