Rope's End

It was a routine case—until his only suspect became his deepest desire.

Ranger Colton Jennings isn't trying to piss off an entire town. He just wants the uncover the truth. And if that makes him unpopular, he's man enough to stand his ground. Until the woman at the top of his suspect list pulls it out from under him, and he's left scrambling for sure footing. He shouldn't want to protect her—but his heart is determined to break the rules.

As a medic for an organization called the Watchmen, Bryony Wilson readily puts her life on the line to save others. Whether it's hiking a treacherous trail or hanging beneath a helicopter on the side of a mountain, there aren't many risks she won't take—except where her heart's concerned. Relationships are a no-fly zone. So, taking a chance on the ranger who breezes into town is wildly out-of-character. And shaping up to be a colossal mistake.

There's no denying their mutual attraction. But Colton has a murder to solve. Becoming Bryony's lover might ease the ache in his chest—or it might just get him killed.
