Rancher Jared Cameron was a mystery to everyone in Jacobsville, Texas… and he liked it that way. Only sweet-natured bookseller Sara dared to intrude on his privacy-informing the loner that a book on ogres might be more appropriate for a man of his qualities. Charmed by her audaciousness, Jared seduced the town's plain Jane. But their burgeoning relationship soon thrust Sara into Jared's hidden world of intrigue. Now the iron cowboy had to steel himself for the fight of his life…and his heart.
