Synopsis
A widowed sheriff, the beautiful boardinghouse owner he loves, and the danger that could steal her away forever.
Life as a lawman taught Micah Lagrange to listen to his head over his heart. As hard as it is to resist his attraction to the blue-eyed boardinghouse owner, that's what he'll do if it means she'll be protected from the crossfire that goes along with his job. Friendship. That's all he has to offer her, though keeping her at a distance tears at his scarred heart. When one of her boarders, a self-centered politician, begins to take an interest in her, Micah can't say the words Rosie needs to hear to keep her from making a terrible mistake.
The sight of Sheriff Lagrange walking down the street is enough to set Rosie Porter's heart aflutter. She's ready for more than their afternoon visits during his rounds. Some days, she's convinced he's ready, too, but something is holding him back. While waiting on Micah to make the next move, Rosie's surprised to catch the eye of a rich and powerful boarder. When he offers her a comfortable marriage of convenience, Rosie's tempted to accept. With the flower of her youth fading, she fears a life of loneliness if she turns her less-than-perfect suitor down, knowing that Micah may never return the feelings she has for him.
When Rosie is injured during a mysterious attack on the boardinghouse, Micah sprints into action. It's up to him to do whatever it takes to protect her—even if it means spending so much time with her that he can no longer deny his love.
