Heart of the Hunter — Linda Sandifer

SHE WAS HIS PRISONER...UNTIL THEY BOTH SURRENDERED TO THE GLORIOUS FURY OF LOVE'S DESIRE

OUTLAW ECSTASY
Catlin O'Toole is a wildflower beauty determined to survive in a marriage as arid and cursed as the ungiving Texas land. Even when temptation, in the form of Texas Ranger Dan Pate, wakens the fierce, forgotten hungers of her heart. Even when the memory of his warm and questing lips torments her nights with loneliness.

When next they meet, Catlin is a free woman -- but not free from the law. Dan has been forced to track down the outlaw enchantress who haunts his very being -- to arrest her for the murder of her husband!

Angry and betrayed, Catlin agrees to a cruel and dangerous bargain to buy her freedom. Posing as man and wife, Dan and Catlin make their way across the treacherous wilderness to discover a brutal truth. And to surrender at last to the passionate promise of love's most magnificent destiny.
