Texas Redeemed

Her words cost his brother his life. Now she's determined to follow him into danger to prove his innocence—but his heart may be the one thing beyond her reach.  When Dallas reporter Evelyn McKenzie publishes a story accusing Indian Agent Jake Cooper of corruption, she's certain her sources are unimpeachable. She's wrong. And the consequences cost Jake's brother his life.  Consumed by guilt, Evelyn does the unthinkable. She hires an Apache guide and follows Jake across the wild Texas frontier into the heart of Comanche territory. Her mission: prove his innocence and make amends.  Jake Cooper has dedicated his life to preventing a war on the Southern Plains, standing between the tribe he's sworn to protect and settlers desperate to survive. He doesn't need a headstrong city reporter trailing behind him, stirring up trouble. But Evelyn is unlike anyone he's ever met, and somewhere between Comanche raids and campfire confessions, she begins dismantling the walls around his heart.  Meanwhile, danger threatens from every direction. A corrupt army captain builds a case to destroy Jake's career. A war chief demands vengeance. And the woman Jake once loved, the wife of his deceased brother, arrives at the fort with a secret that could bind him to her forever.  For fans of Tracie Peterson and Jody Hedlund—a sweeping tale of redemption, sacrifice, and the love that refuses to let go.
