About THE OUTLAW’S BRIDE

A man on the run.

Seth Blackstone has been running from the law for two years and has no plans to stop now. It’s happenstance that he stumbles onto a Kansas ranch—just in time to witness the local law threatening a young woman. He knows he shouldn’t interfere, but he can’t seem to stop himself…

A desperate woman.

After her parents’ deaths, nobody believes Raven Patterson can manage the family ranch on her own. Some days she doesn’t believe it, either. But there’s no way she’s letting her brother and sister be farmed out to another family. They need each other. So when Seth claims he’s her new hired man, she quickly agrees.

But the sheriff is suspicious of their ruse and Seth finds himself stuck on the Patterson ranch. He doesn’t mind the work, but he does mind Raven’s constant presence, her soft touch. She makes him remember things better forgotten. Like the life he used to want…
