Caitlyn Daniels didn't plan to fall in love, least of all with a wanted outlaw. However, when Dakota Cabe rides into town, she loses her heart to him for she sees the man beneath the tough façade of a hard-hearted desperado. When the sheriff forces him out of town, she is devastated. Even as she understands Dakota reasons to protect her from bounty hunters, she'd rather live on the run than without him. But he didn't ask, and she didn't tell him she was pregnant. Her pride wouldn't allow her. After her son is kidnapped, she collides with Dakota, surprisingly on the same mission. She needs a man as cold, brutal, and cunning as the man who has her son; she needs Dakota Cabe. Former lovers, now desperados, they put their past aside to save their son. Together they confront vicious outlaws, friends turned enemies, and an unruly love neither of them can deny or control.
