About this book
Outlaw's Bride When Ethan Hawk's childhood nemesis—now a stunning, determined woman—tracks him down in Oakville, he realizes that the tomboy he once knew is armed with something far more dangerous than guns: genuine love. But with the law closing in and enemies from his past threatening everything, Ethan can't let her get caught in the crossfire, no matter how fiercely she fights to stay by his side. Patch is willing to risk it all to clear his name and prove that some connections run too deep to deny, but first they'll have to outrun the past together. A thrilling blend of Old West grit and heart-pounding romance that proves sometimes the most dangerous thing a man can do is fall in love.

Dusty outlaw ballads meet forbidden desire—think Sturgill Simpson's grit mixed with the smoldering tension of classic country heartbreak. Acoustic guitars, deep vocals, and that ache of star-crossed love. Dangerous, defiant, and deeply romantic.
