About The Book
Rancher Nick Red Shield, believing he's hit a woman called "Joey" while driving on a rain-slicked highway, feels protective of the obviously scared woman. Lauren Davis, who adopted her kidnapped son's name, is grateful to be alive: her ex-boyfriend's best friend was supposed to kill her, but lost his nerve. Now she's recovering and training Nick's paint horse, a natural for Lauren, a former jockey.
Lauren, who does not believe she will ever recover her son from her mob boss ex, begins to change her mind when she realizes she has the perfect bait in the form of Nick's horse.
