description: AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN
  
  Captain Drew Robelard's investigative mission at Fort Tejon was as potentially deadly as the fierce Mojave desert outside. He'd thought his life couldn't get more complicated, until love Mandy Henderson arrived and begged for his help in finding her missing fiance.
  
  Drew knew there was no hope that any man could survive the desert dangers for so many months, but the courage driving this Bostonian beauty aroused his compassion. And helping Mandy would be the perfect cover for his mission. Defying the odds, he found himself lending aid ... and losing his heart.
  
  To his dismay, Drew realized he was competing for Mandy with a man who must surely be dead. But how could he convince her to face the bitter truth, and find sweet solace in the refuge of his arms?
