Riding Shotgun With his life in shambles and desperate to bond with the five-year-old daughter he barely knows, ex-SEAL Pierce Lawrence returns to his Texas childhood home, the Double K Ranch. There he meets the intriguing Grace Addison, a mystery woman on the run...who is loathe to get involved with the ruggedly handsome cowboy. Pierce, instantly attracted to Grace, would do anything to help her escape her living nightmare...if only she'd let him. But how can she allow him get close, when she fears the killer targeting her could also endanger Pierce -- and his innocent daughter? Quick-Draw Cowboy Riley Lawrence is an expert at moving on and not risking his heart. Helping pastry chef Dani Boatman is a one time deal -- she's got her hands full giving her orphaned niece a stable home. But someone with a vicious grudge has a target on the curvaceous redhead's back. And destroying her life is just the start... Dani doesn't trust easy -- a lesson she learned the hard way. This freewheeling cowboy with an irresistible grin insists on putting himself between her and harm's way. But the desire getting hotter between them can't promise anything more than heartbreak. And with unsuspected danger also closing in, Dani and Riley's one chance for love could prove forever lethal.
