Reed Wilder journeyed to Far Enough, Texas, in search of a fallen woman. Instead he found an angel. Barely reaching five-foot two inches, the petite firebrand helped defend him against two ruffians and then treated his wounds with a gentleness that made him long to uncover all of her secrets. But she had only to reveal her name and he knew his lovely rescuer was not an innocent woman, but the deceitful opportunist who had preyed on his brother. Reed prided himself on his logic and control, but both deserted him when he gazed into Lucy's warm and beautiful eyes. He had only one option: to discover the truth behind those enticing lips he longed to sample. For how could the tainted woman he sought be the rose-scented angel he'd discovered? And soon, holding Lucy in his arms, he knew he'd come far enough to realize true love when he found it, far enough to know...WHAT MATTERS MOST.

Winnie Griggs grew up in south Louisiana in an undeveloped area her friends thought of as the very back of beyond. With her two younger siblings and another family of two siblings for playmates, she spent many an hour exploring the overgrown land around her home, cutting jungle trails, building forts and frontier camps, and looking for pirate ships on the nearby bayou. Once she ‘grew up’ she found other outlets for dealing with all those wonderful, adventurous imaginary friends by filling notebooks with their stories. And somewhere along the way, those scribblings gave way to full length stories. Eventually she found her own Prince Charming, a rancher whose white steed takes the form of a tractor and whose kingdom is situated in a small rural community that she loves to call home, and together they’ve built their own storybook happily-ever-after. Their lives together expanded to include four now grown children who share Winnie’s vivid imagination and her husband’s steadier influences and are now out in the world pursuing their own adventures. Winnie shares her stories with readers through her writings for Love Inspired and Love Inspired Historical books. You can learn more about Winnie at www.winniegriggs.com
