Against the Wind (The Raines of Wind Canyon)
After Sarah Allen’s abusive, sadistic husband, Andrew, is murdered, his shady business partners want to “talk” to her about something of Andrew’s she has. But Sarah has no idea what they mean. Fearful for herself and her little girl, Holly, Sarah changes her name and moves back to her old home in Wind Canyon, Wyoming, far away from her expensive L.A. mansion. A flat tire during a blizzard on the last leg of her trip reunites her with Jackson Raines, who was only a teenager when she rejected him for the monster she married. There’s action, adventure, and lots of steamy sex as Jackson and Sarah search for Andrew’s secret and why the men who are willing to kill her for it want it. This is the first book in Martin’s Raines of Wind Canyon series, to be followed by Against the Fire and Against the Law. --Shelley Mosley
