Sometimes it takes a stranger to see you as you really are. Born and raised on sprawling Texas land, Margaret OÆBrien prides herself on her competence as a rancher. But her father believes sheÆs made for more than just dawn-to-dusk work. He wants her to have the love of a good man, to raise children, to build a life. But Margaret gave up such dreams years ago. SheÆs convinced no man would have her, that the ranch is her life now. So when MargaretÆs father hires Daniel Cutler as a new foreman, sheÆs frustrated and suspicious. Then an overheard conversation links him with a gang of bank robbers, and sheÆs downright worried. Daniel swears heÆs not involved, but MargaretÆs not convinced. She knows the man still has secrets.
