Promises kept and promises broken. When Ella Jamison’s father gets in trouble with the law, he offers up his only daughter to get the Texas ranger on his trail to look the other way. Fear over what might become of her father if arrested obligates Ella to go along with his plan. Isaiah Hayes doesn’t accept bribes, but his concern for Miss Jamison, should he leave her to Mr. Jamison’s abuse, compels Isaiah to accept the offer. While investigating the Christmas Eve hangings and Christmas Day Massacre, Isaiah tries to make Ella comfortable in his meager dwelling. Ella battles her fears as she tries to adjust to a new home with a man she fears, almost as much as the father who gave her away. Promises are made to broken, aren’t they?

Author Bio: Gripping Suspense ♦️ Engaging Romance Hello, I'm Elle E. Kay, a Christian romantic suspense author from Central Pennsylvania. Writing novels that touch my readers' hearts is an incredible blessing, and I'm grateful to draw inspiration from my life experiences. My debut novel, Shadowing Stella, was a dream come true, and I found completing the Endless Mountain Series with Implicating Claudia and Chasing Sofie to be a joyous experience. It's been humbling to see readers eager for more of my work. I'm excited to offer my readers a blend of contemporary and historical romance with my Lawkeeper series. From Lawfully Held to Lawfully Vindicated, these stories will keep you rooting for the heroes and heroines to find love and justice. And for a bit of fun, I invite you to check out The Billionaire's Reluctant Bride and The Bodyguard's Fake Bride, which are my contributions to the Blushing Brides series. My latest book, Grave Pursuits, takes readers on a thrilling journey through Pennsylvania state parks, and I'm currently working on a romantic suspense novel with ties to the Rattlesnake Roundup in Noxen, Pennsylvania. I'm grateful to share my stories with my readers and hope to continue doing so for years to come. As a Christian author, my faith is a vital part of who I am, and I'm glad I can weave it into my stories. I believe that faith and hope are powerful forces that can bring us closer to God, and I aim to inspire my readers with these values. You're welcome to check out my website https://ElleEKay.com for updates on all of my upcoming books and to stay connected with me. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me, and I hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them.
