Sexy injured & amnesiac cowboy turns up at "Serenity's" cabin unsure of why he's there or who he even is.
Her name used to be Lori Perkins. She had been blond and married to a man named Hank Perkins. Hank had not only been an abusive husband, but also a con man. But she had left that all behind when she ran away from her abused life and divorced Hank.
Lori was now named Serenity Clare. She lived in Lost Creek, New Mexico. She was a red head, single, and told fortunes during festivals. She was now the direct opposite of what she once was. Only the fear of Hank ever showing up remained from her previous life. Then a handsome stranger showed up at her door.
The man had wandered in from the desert half dead and with no memory of who he was. The only thing he could recall was the name Lori Perkins. But Serenity had never met the man before. Fearing Hank could have sent him to harm her, but somehow trusting him, she allowed him to remain with her. (Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.) She would care for his injuries and find out who he was. Until then she nicknamed him Justus, because a tarot reading stated he had "justice" on his side. Serenity did not know she was opening the door to her past AND her future!
** I cannot say enough great things about this story! Simply put, it was wonderful. A strong hero with an even stronger heroine. I found myself proud of Serenity, and when a reader can feel something for a character, then the author has done an outstanding job! Here is a book you will be unable to put down until the last page has been turned. Non-stop action with heart-stopping (but not too detailed) romance. PERFECT!
