Summary

Exile...or love. Life...or death. His demons will force him to choose.

Gunslinger Kincaid has traded his black clothes and pistols for a homespun shirt and trousers. Now he's Cade Brody, a man with dark hair, dark eyes and an even darker past. The blood money he's earned bought him a small piece of property in New Mexico territory, at the base of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. But it can't buy him peace.

Sabrina Edmonds, a tough, no-nonsense widow, runs the post office and store in the small town of Eustace. She's made her way in life with an independent streak a mile wide. Sabrina doesn't want to get involved with Cade, but she finds herself drawn to the dark stranger who hides in his mountain retreat.

Cade wants nothing more than to be left alone, but an elusive wild child who delights in tormenting him, and a town full of people determined to befriend him, conspire to intrude upon his self-imposed exile. Then there's Sabrina, who should be afraid of him—but isn't.

Not even when the deadly demons of his past catch up with him.
