THREE HEARTS. ONE BRUTAL WINTER.
A LOVE STORY WRITTEN IN THE STARS.
Lula Clay was supposed to die with the rest of the expedition on the Verdigris River, until two outlaws turned their guns on their own men to save her.
By dawn, Lula is the only survivor, and Boone Maddox and Okee Collins are wanted for a massacre they tried to stop.
Boone and Okee have survived war, hunger, and years of loving each other in secret. Taking in a witness was never part of their plan.
Then winter traps the three of them together.
Snowbound in a remote cabin, Lula, Boone, and Okee are pulled into a love none of them expected.
The Widow and the Wanted is a high-heat MMF western romance with an MM established couple and a guaranteed happily ever after for all three.
