The Outlaw and the Bounty Hunter

Outlaw Brides, Book Two

In the rugged heart of southwestern Idaho, where prairie meets mountains, two souls collide—Della, with sun-kissed skin, an eye-blink fast trigger, and a spirit as untamed as the land; and Skyler, a brooding rancher with secrets in his eyes, a lion for a pet, a past like no other, and a price on his head. Both owe their troubles to one Malachi Blackheath.

Their first encounter crackles with tension. Della’s fiery determination clashes with Skyler’s guarded aloofness. Yet, fate weaves their destinies together. As they reinforce stream banks and defend sheep from senseless slaughter, their hearts follow suit. Her ranch becomes a canvas for their love—a place where whispered promises ride the wind and moonlit kisses taste of sagebrush and longing.

But life isn’t all sunsets and stolen glances. Dark clouds threaten: Blackheath seeks to claim their land. Della and Skyler fight their mutual enemy side by side, their passion igniting like wildfire. Amidst haylofts and late evening rides, they discover love isn’t just a feeling—it’s sweat-soaked work, sacrifice, and the promise of forever.
