Publisher's Synopsis
A wealthy heiress running from an arranged marriage, the hotheaded deputy who waylays her carriage, and their accidental attraction that everyone warns will never lead to happily-ever-after.
The newest deputy of Christmas Mountain, Jesse Hawling, is determined to impress the boots off his fellow citizens. A poor cowboy who practically raised himself, he's well aware of the black spots in his reputation he'll need to overcome to gain their trust - a quick trigger finger and an even quicker temper. Iris Hildebrand has always obeyed her family's wishes, right up to the point where her cruel new guardian insists she marry a man she doesn't love. Her refusal earns her a one-way ticket to a remote asylum out west, a move that sadly strips her of any right to her family's fortune. During a highway holdup along the way, she ends up in the clutches of a cocky cowboy from her past. Who in the world would pin a deputy badge on a rogue like him? And she can't even begin to explain the spark of attraction between them. Though she has no choice but to trust him with her safety, she vows on the spot she will never trust him with her heart!
