The Green-Eyed Doll — Jerrie Alexander

Catherine McCoy is on the run. For the past year, she's been on the move, hiding the secrets and guilt in her heart. When she lands in small-town Texas and meets Sheriff Matt Ballard, he ignites a flame she thought lost forever. Matt has scars of his own. He left the big city after an undercover operation went bad and his partner was killed. Now, as Matt hunts for a serial killer who paints his victims' faces like porcelain dolls, Catherine becomes a safe haven for him. Two tortured souls finding comfort in each other's arms--until he uncovers her secret, and their bond of trust is broken. When Catherine disappears, Matt races to find her, fearing the murderer has found his next green-eyed doll. But the killer has a surprise coming. Catherine will fight to the death before she'll be a victim again. But will her determination be enough?
