Warrior

Nevada Blackthorn, segundo of the Rocking M Ranch, was born of a warrior breed. The blood of his ancestors had given him strength. Years spent in Afghanistan's bitter struggle for freedom had taught him hard lessons. Nevada believed in survival--and nothing else.

Wildlife expert Eden Summers had come to the Rocking M in search of the cougars she loved, but she found something still more untamed. She found a man, a man who had within him an abiding gentleness that no other could see, that no other could touch. And she longed to lay a loving hand on his lonely heart and show him the peace that only the brave can know.
