Author Description

He was her only chance for survival…Born to wealth and privilege, but now widowed and betrayed on the unforgiving Arizona frontier, Viola Ross must choose between starvation and marriage—to her husband’s killer. Or take a scandalous risk and turn her back on polite society by becoming the mistress of William Donovan. With his reputation for ruthlessness and a piercing stare that can stop any man—or melt any woman—Donovan seems fully capable of defending her with his bullwhip and Bowie knives. Not to mention what else he can do with those big, callused hands… As desire flares between Donovan and Viola, a killer’s lust for Viola turns to deadly vengeance. For his allies are the very men who once destroyed Donovan’s family, and this time, they’ll let no Irish Devil stand in their way…
