July Wildfire

When a neighbor’s fancy barn burns, Missy Liston is falsely accused of arson. She runs from the fire, and collides with a man hiding in the shadows. Her troubles escalate when they’re both hauled to jail. The gentle, kind man from Virginia steals her heart before she learns he’s an outlaw. Missy schemes to get him out of jail, knowing she will never see him again, and she’ll be left to fight the circuit judge’s claims alone.
Already on the lam, Rand Connor, aka Tim Franklin, hid on a riverbank waiting for darkness so he could travel west. He’d made it from Virginia to a lonesome town in Kansas, evading the law. One chance encounter with a beautiful woman changed his life forever. He couldn’t stay and put her in danger, but could he live with his heart still in Cottonwood Falls, Kansas?
