author: Horner, Lyn
description: Looking for unique, breathtaking western romance? Lyn Horner's Texas Devlins trilogy delivers. Set in the 1870s, her books offer views of the Old West through the eyes of three amazing siblings. Descended from an ancient race of Irish Celtic Druids, each of the three possesses a rare psychic talent they hide for fear of persecution.
   Dearest Druid (Texas Devlins, Rose's Story) is the third book in the series. It stars Rose Devlin, the sheltered baby sister of the family. Rose has the extraordinary ability to heal with her mind, a secret gift that has caused her great pain in the past. She also harbors a second, more terrible secret that threatens her chances of ever knowing love.
  Choctaw Jack, a half-breed cowboy introduced in Dashing Druid (Texas Devlins, Tye's story), straddles two worlds, honoring loyalty to his mother's people while struggling to walk the white man's road. Like Rose, he keeps shocking secrets. If they ever come to light, he stands to lose his job, possibly his life. Yet, he must risk everything to save someone he loves, even if it means kidnapping Rose.
  As Jack spirits Rose away into the heart of the Indian Territory, she comes to accept his reason for abducting her but fears his nearness and the unwanted feelings he stirs within her. Along the way they're tested by natural forces and individuals, both white and red, who revile Jack and scorn Rose for riding with him. But far greater challenges lie ahead. Rose's healing power and courage will be pushed to their limits, while Jack finds the greatest risk he faces may be caring too much for his lovely paleface captive. Dearest Druid has received 5-star reviews from the Paranormal Romance Guild and BigAl's Books and Pals.
