Amber Damon has spent her life protecting her younger brother, Wills, from the nightmare of their past—parents who see them as nothing more than currency. When a daring escape to a new town places them in the path of a powerful family with secrets of their own, Amber finds herself under the watchful eye of Wrangler, a man with a mysterious connection to her heart. Though drawn to him, Amber is reluctant to trust him, but Wrangler’s fierce determination to protect her and Wills begins to break through her defenses.
As the two fight to leave their dark pasts behind, an ancient threat awakens. Together, they must face both the family that wants to tear them apart and a mystical legacy that binds them. Will Amber find the courage to embrace a future with Wrangler, or will shadows of the past consume them both?

'Wrangler' is the third book in Kathi S. Barton's "Sheppard's Shadow" series. The drama of Amber and Wills life takes a turn when they encounter Archie and Carrie at the airport. In a show of goodwill and empathy, the Shepherds buy these two children plane tickets and take them to their home. The crazy seems to snowball, as it usually does in Ms. Barton's book when it's a good vs. evil situation. The storyline was so engaging I'm already anticipating the next book in the series.
