Things are starting to heat up...Paige Davies is the only girl in a family with five brothers. She can shoot, fight, and ride with the best of them. When she gets drawn into the battle for her two best friends' lives, she knows she might end up being the next target. Paige may be a proud, independent woman, but even she knows that she must find help to stay alive. But does that help really have to come from the sexy and equally confident Cole Parker?Cole Parker is an FBI agent in Lexington, Kentucky and doesn't have time for some tough-acting country girl with killer legs after ending up in the middle of a national scandal. Neither Paige nor Cole can decide whether to strangle or kiss each other as the tension builds. As they work through the case of his career, both find that love can be tougher than bringing down some of the most powerful men in America.
