Twelve-Gauge Guardian

A private investigator partners up with a pretty reporter on a cold case in this romantic suspense from a New York Times–bestselling author.

Bad news for journalist Raine Chandler—she’s on the run from a killer, but her luck is about to change as she catches the eye of hunky Cordell Winchester.

In town on family business, the cowboy P.I. can’t ignore a lady in need—or resist the urge to help her solve an abduction case long gone cold. But the blue-eyed woman is herself as much of a temptation as she is a mystery. . . .

By the time a storm strands them at the Winchester ranch, Raine and Cordell decide to bare all, body and soul. Moved by Cordell’s confessions, Raine makes her own shocking revelation. Now, with another girl gone missing, Cordell has to trust and protect the woman who has already stolen his heart. . . .
