Description
New York Times bestselling author Jodi Thomas delivers a tender tale of the Old West, a handsome Texas Ranger, and a mysterious woman fleeing a terrible fate in the first powerful novel in the Whispering Mountain series.
Honest, straightforward, and ruggedly handsome, Travis McMurray is also more than a little bit busted, the result of an ambush during his service as a Texas Ranger. And beautiful Rainey Adams is in a fix of her own: on the run from an arranged marriage, she’ll do just about anything to keep her freedom. The first time they meet, she steals a kiss—and his horse. The second time, she’s an angel of mercy who eases him through a terrible fever, and then disappears.
When Travis recovers, he’s determined to track down this intriguing woman and bring her back to the Whispering Mountain Ranch as his bride. But this renegade may be too much for even the toughest Ranger to handle...

        Texas Ranger Travis McMurray feels more at home hunting down outlaws than socializing with family and neighbors. When he reluctantly escorts his young sister, Sage, to a dance, he sets in motion a life-altering chain of events. Intrigued by Rainey, the tiny sprite who steals his horse, but wounded by outlaws before he can track her down, he is slowly recuperating at the family ranch when he receives a letter from her that makes him smile for the first time in months. As their correspondence continues, he comes to realize that Rainey may be in danger, and he sets off for Austin to find her, accompanied by Sage and young Duck, an orphan rescued from the outlaw camp. Thomas, well known for her extraordinary sense of place, realistic characters, and fast-paced multilayered plots, has penned another colorful, emotionally intense keeper in the genre of western historical romance, and launched a new series named after the McMurray family ranch, Whispering Mountain.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2006, American Library Association.)
