WHAT WOULD YOU RISK TO KEEP A PROMISE? Katherine Slade's wants are simple: to keep her promise to the man who saved her life, escape her lawless husband, and leave her past behind. But pretending to be a mail order bride was never part of her plan! Especially when that plan forces her to become Sheriff Connor Langston's housekeeper to stay out of jail. Keeping up the deception is difficult, but even more challenging is battling her growing feelings toward the handsome lawman. A wife is the last thing Connor needs, even if the rest of Fatal Bluff is far too eager to see him married off. With a band of outlaws threatening the safety of Fatal Bluff, and a child to care for, he has enough on his plate. But as he watches little Jenny respond to Kate, he can't deny she has worked her way into his own heart. If only he could shake the growing sense that his new housekeeper is not who she claims to be. When Connor discovers the truth about Kate, will this outlaw bride stand a chance at becoming the sheriff's wife?
