(Alternate cover edition of ASIN B0837FGB8Q.) During her upbringing at the orphanage, Jolene Lilygate made a childhood pact to come to the aid of her two best friends, no questions asked…for life. So when Lorelai Woods urgently summons her to Texas, she packs a bag and boards the next train. She soon finds herself serving as a detective in training with a seasoned Pinkerton agent requesting her hand in marriage…but only for the duration of their upcoming investigation into the hostile takeover of her friend’s ranch. Agent Matthew Countryman jumps at the chance to sink his teeth into helping track down the Diablos Gang. He’s never been able to resist a challenge, and convincing the stunning but reserved Jolene to serve as his partner is no exception. While most men in his shoes would be sketching a game plan for the upcoming showdown with the outlaws, Matthew instead finds himself plotting a way to keep Jolene in his life—for good!
