If there's any place that can convince Angela Harrell to stop running, it's Ransom Canyon. And if there's any man who can reveal desires more deeply hidden than her every fear, it's Wilkes Wagner. Beneath the rancher's honorable exterior is something that just might keep her safe...or unwittingly put her in danger's path.
With his dreams of leaving this small Texas town swallowed up by hard, dusty reality, all Wilkes has to show for his life is the Devil's Fork Ranch. Though not one to let false hope seduce him, he can't deny the quiet and cautious beauty who slips into his world and changes everything.
Lauren Brigman finally has freedom at her fingertips. All she needs is Lucas Reyes's attention—a look, a touch, some sign that she's more to him than a girl he rescued one dangerous night. But now it's her turn to rescue someone, and the life-altering decision may cost her more than a chance with Lucas.

MY REVIEW
After reading so many thrillers, it is refreshing to pick up and start a new series that is not a thriller! I always switch between thrillers and what this book is, a romance. I am going to preface this review by saying that I am not going to be spoiling any part of the story for those of you who have not yet picked up this series, but to explain more this series does not follow a story narrative from book 1 to whatever book it ends up at. This series has a different story, more or less, with each book with featuring main characters from Ransom Canyon that we have seen before. Some characters may appear in more than one book but every character has their own story.
In this story, we follow Angela who is running away and ends up at Ransom Canyon. It is there that she meets Wilkes, a rancher at the Canyon. Angela hopes that she has managed to get away from who she is running from, but she might not be that lucky. We also follow Lauren who is the Sheriff's daughter who has to make a very hard decision. Should she help someone?
I am really starting to feel 'at home' in Ransom Canyon. I feel like the first book was the 'introduction' to the Canyon and now we are really getting into the lives of some of the characters in it.
Despite stories being different in each book in this series, I would strongly recommend starting from the beginning, at book 1, and reading in order. Yes, there are different main stories in each one but there may be characters that feature in book 1 but their main story is not seen until book 3. You don't have to do this, but I would recommend it.
