Title: Lucas
Description: Emily Walters needs help fast. Her ex-husband is being released from prison and Adam swore he'd never let her go. She knows he'll come for her. Her only choice is one of the bad boys of Dry River, Lucas Taggart. Lucas raised a lot of hell when he was younger and never backed down from anyone. It's what Emily needs in a protector and a husband. She offers him half of her ranch in exchange for protection and marriage. Whispering Pines is one of the largest horse ranches in the States. Would it be enough to entice the brooding man? Lucas Taggart isn't interested in marriage but he is interested in Whispering Pines and when he looks into Emily's eyes, he knows it wouldn't be a hardship being married to her, as long as it's a real marriage. When Adam shows up to claim the woman he still thinks of as his wife, will Lucas have to do the unthinkable to protect the woman he's come to love with all his heart? What happens if or when Adam is finally out of the picture? Will Emily still want Lucas around and will she ever return his love?
