An FBI agent must protect his ex and her newborn baby in the latest saga by USA TODAY bestselling author Delores Fossen
FBI agent Drury Ryland is no stranger to surprises. But upon returning to his family’s cattle ranch in Texas, he’s confronted with the ghosts of his past…and a threat to his future. Caitlyn Denson is the beautiful woman who broke his heart and the last person Drury expected to reunite with. But his ex didn’t arrive at Silver Creek Ranch alone.
With a killer on her trail and a newborn daughter in her arms, Caitlyn must put aside her tumultuous history with Drury and focus on survival. Drury feels obligated to protect the family he never had, but professional boundaries begin to blur as their enemy shifts into stark focus.
The Lawmen of Silver Creek Ranch
“I can still hear the gunshots,” she said.
Yeah, so could he. He didn’t want to tell her that she would hear them for the rest of her life. But she would. So would he. And he would remember that look of terror on her face.
There wasn’t really a way to comfort her right now so Drury just slipped his arm around her and hoped that helped. It seemed to do that. For a couple of long moments anyway. Until she lifted her head, and her eyes met his.
Any chance of comforting her vanished. A lot of things vanished. Like common sense, because just like that, Drury felt the old attraction.
“I don’t know how to stop this,” she said. Her voice was a whisper, filled with her thin breath.
She wasn’t talking about the danger now.
It would have been safer if she had been.
Before he could talk himself out of it or remember this was something he shouldn’t be doing, Drury lowered his head and kissed her.

Special Agent Drury Ryland pulled into his driveway, his truck headlights slashing through the curtain of rain. Rain that nearly caused him to miss the movement behind his detached garage.
Nearly.
But Drury managed to catch a glimpse of someone darting out of sight.
