The crowd cheered as the bandit was hanged--until his hat flew off, revealing the truth: the condemned man was a woman. But the noose was loose, the rope was frayed, and within seconds Outlaw Annie fell to the ground, rescued by the tall, dark stranger who rode by her side as they hightailed it out of town. She'd never met her match until then, in this disturbing outsider who stirred unfamiliar passions as he tried to tame the wildest woman in the West.
Jake Moran couldn't tell Annie the truth: he was a wanted man, using her as bait to lure the infamous Mundy Gang, the only ones who could clear his name. Jake was a gambler, but nothing could have prepared him for this hellion he'd agreed to escort to a distant town. She said she wanted to go straight. But she went straight for his heart, a place no woman had ever touched before, as he battled guilt and desire for the innocent temptress who led him into the most dangerous wilderness of all--love.
