Heart Of Texas — Suzanne D. Williams

Why did only the good people get to fall in love?

Gina Lafferty is the girl on the corner everyone in town knows but won't associate with. After sexual abuse by an uncle in her teens and a tumultuous marriage and divorce by age nineteen, she'll do what she has to in order to survive.

William Swan begged for a job at the Double R to escape the bad path he was on. Working with his cousin, who he's always looked up to, is a sure way to better himself, learn a trade, and maybe one day, have a ranch of his own. That is, if he can find the place.

Lost on an unknown backroad, he stumbles on Gina fighting with her ex. No matter he doesn't know her, no man should treat a woman that way. Yet, his one-time rescue soon doubles in size when a dangerous cowboy he's barely met assaults her and threatens him.

The cowboy he's not afraid of. He can protect her just fine. It's the picture of himself he can't face. That she might not be good enough for what feels a lot like love.

Book 5 in the COWBOYS OF THE DOUBLE R series by author, SUZANNE D. WILLIAMS.
