Texas embrace

Description:

With her father murdered by renegade Apaches, 22 year old Tessa Reeves feared she'd be their captive forever - that no one would ever find her. And even if she were found, she'd be scorned by those who called Indians savages...and their woman prisoners forever unclean. John Hawkins, 32, knew how it felt to be an outcast. Born to a woman who'd suffered a brutal attack, the rugged lawman had had to develop a will of steel to survive in a harsh world. If anyone could save Tessa, it was he. They were a man and a woman who had known violence and tragedies. Yet even with desperados and hostile Indians all around them, John and Tessa discovered they wanted something more - a chance at happiness, a future worth fighting for, and a love as wild and free as the land they called home.
