A Wanted Woman Book

Setting: 1870's Texas Sensuality: 7 Both talented and beautiful, Wren Bradley has the heart of a rebel and a lady's fine manners and fragile appearance. Cherished by her parents, she adores her family but longs to break free to pursue a career as an actress. When her father realizes she won't be dissuaded, he asks a longtime friend and Pinkerton employee, Cord Caldwell, to act as her bodyguard. Unfortunately for Wren, Cord is the man she fell in love with as a naive 16-year-old and despite the five years that have passed since then, she soon discovers that spending time with Cord has her falling hard and fast all over again. Only this time, Cord falls too. As for Cord, falling in love with Wren is a catastrophe because his past has taught him that he can never marry. Even as Cord and Wren struggle with their mutual attraction, the outlaw that eluded Cord and endangered Wren renews his threat to both their lives. Cord is determined to keep Wren safe, even if it means letting the outlaw escape, but Wren refuses to let Cord face danger alone. Whether they'll save each other is questionable--and even more chancy are the odds that love will find a way to keep them together forever. Against the backdrop of 1870's Texas, Rebecca Wade tells a tale of gunfights and train robbers, of a hero who's a legendary but lonely lawman, and of a heroine who's strong enough to battle outlaws and heal the lawman's heart. An excellent read from an author to watch.--Lois Faye DyerRead More
