The West is hot, but it gets hotter after Sundown

Pair a brave widow with a mysterious outlaw, and the flames are bound to spark after sundown!

War is hell, and those who are left behind are left with the remnants of what a better life used to be. Arabella, or Bella, has set out to rebuild her life. A relative spinster at twenty-six, she moves to rekindle a relationship with her father, the Sheriff of Sundown. But en route, and where the story opens, her mode of transportation is robbed and she is taken hostage. As she and her gun-on-the-run kidnapper share a few private moments together, her heart is suddenly captured by a man whose face she's never seen. He could be anyone. Perhaps, someone right under her nose.

A quick read, the author takes us through a story of loss and love, forgiveness and redemption. Definite recommendation for Western romance fans!
