Grady — Ann B. Harrison

Sheriff Grady Cooper is happy doing the job he loves in the rural town of Cooper's Crossing, Colorado. He has neither the time nor the inclination to look for wedded bliss after his long time relationship ended badly.
When Lara Williams moves to town with her daughter to take up the veterinary practice, she is determined to keep a low profile, but fate steps in. As much as she dreams of a man like Grady to protect her, if he discovers her dark past, it would end their new-found friendship and leave her more vulnerable than ever.
Lara and Grady keep getting pushed together when her wayward daughter needs the heavy hand of the law and it more than ramps up the heat between them. Grady knows Lara is hiding something and he intends to find out what it is before he gets in too deep.
