His return has stirred up more trouble than he ever imagined... CIA operative Devlin Paltier never thought returning to his small Wyoming hometown would be riskier than an undercover mission. But Devlin knows that revealing he's no ordinary cowboy could bring danger to everyone in his world. Including Deputy Elaine Paltier, his widowed sister-in-law and the off-limits woman he's never been able to forget. Before long, though, Devlin's dark secrets come back to haunt him...along with two killers hell-bent on revenge. Now protecting Elaine becomes the most crucial assignment of his career--and the only way to secure a possible shared future. From Harlequin Intrigue: Seek thrills. Solve crimes. Justice served.
