East Texas
Alone. Targeted. Deceived.
Carolyn Truman’s father was killed in the dead of night, and their scheming neighbor, Mr. Holland, then claimed he won their family farm in a card game. The only way Carolyn will be able to keep her beloved home is by agreeing to marry the despicable Holland.
Out of options, Carolyn sends a letter to her brother, Matt, begging for his help.
But Matt won’t be riding in alone. By his side is fellow Texas Ranger Jake Brace, who is willing to join the fight to prevent Carolyn from becoming the ultimate ante to a poker game wrong. One look at Carolyn, and Jake is ready to offer her his heart.
Their budding feelings for each other are temporarily trampled into the dusty trail when Carolyn is kidnapped by Holland and his men. Now, Jake and Matt are on the hunt to bring her home. Holland has yet to learn the two determined and deadly Rangers are bringing the full fury of Texas with them… but he will.
