Texas Rose: Too Hard to Handle #2
About this ebook
St. Louis society knew Evangeline Howell as a refined young lady. The truth was far less elegant—she was an abandoned child with no family to claim her. Then a letter from Texas promised answers about the past she never knew.
Determined to uncover her true identity, Evie sets out for the frontier in search of a dime-novel hero to escort her west. Instead, she finds Tyler Monteigne—a golden-haired gambler with a talent for trouble. Tyler can outshoot most gunmen and outtalk most lawmen, but he’s no knight in shining armor.
Evie is desperate to reach Texas. Tyler is desperate to escape the ruins of war. Their uneasy bargain casts them on a journey into a territory where ambush and betrayal await at every turn. But the greatest danger may not come from outlaws or bullets—it may come from the unexpected bond growing between a gambler with too many secrets and a woman determined to claim her destiny.
