Promised Unions- Beneath a Borrowed Badge

They killed her family to break her, but a woman like her is not easily broken. Lainee James should be hidden away in grief. Instead, she rides with her grandfather and several marshals under a male disguise and a borrowed badge, hunting the men who slaughtered her family, only to uncover a conspiracy far darker than she ever imagined. When a planned ambush ends with her abducted and dragged deep into the wilderness, Lainee falls into the hands of men who walk a razor's edge between outlaws and lawmen. Their leader, Ryder Redmond, is a tangle of sharp contradictions, ruthless to his enemies, unexpectedly gentle with her, and determined to keep her alive at any cost. As danger closes in from every side, secrets surface about the marshals she rode with, the men hunting her, and Wallace Flannery's twisted obsession. Wallace doesn't just want to own Lainee, he wants what he believes she carries: something her uncle entrusted to her before he died... something she's meant to deliver to Marshal Trent Kendrick-the man she's promised to. Hunted through the wild, betrayed by the honorable, and forced to rely on men she barely understands, Lainee must decide who to trust. Because if the wrong man catches her, it won't end with death. And if the right one does... he may be the greatest danger to her heart.
