Mere days after becoming an outlaw, Jess Gentry stares down the wrong end of a six shooter. A ready trigger-finger brooks no argument, until the black-clad figure calling the shots is shot down. Jess's years of training as a doctor demand he try to help. But the bounty hunter is like no other he has encountered-long ebony hair, even longer sexy legs, and green eyes a man could get lost in. Meg Lincoln, 21, awakes naked in the arms of an indecently handsome outlaw. An outlaw she intended to bring in. An outlaw whose compassion and healing hands save her life. But his touch incites another ache-a longing she has never known. And for the first time Meg wonders if there might be a man who is good for something other than hunting. A man worth keeping around ...
