DANGER BROUGHT THEM BACK TOGETHER.
WILL A SECRET BABY TEAR THEM APART?
As the newest deputy in town, Henry Ward is hoping to escape painful memories. Then a rain of bullets brings his history rising up again, throwing Cassie Gates directly into his path. He hasn’t forgotten their night together, seven months ago. And now that he’s seen her—pregnant with his child—Henry knows he’s fighting more than his past. He’s fighting for his future.
The Protectors of Riker County
TYLER ANNE SNELL genuinely loves all genres of the written word. However, she’s realized that she loves books illed with sexual tension and mysteries a little more than the rest. Her stories have a good dose of both. Tyler lives in Alabama with her same-named husband and their mini “lions.” When she isn’t reading or writing, she’s playing video games and working on her blog, Almost There. To follow her shenanigans, visit tylerannesnell.com.

This book is for Marjorie and Annmarie. You two have been by my side, rooting for me since before I could remember. Even now you two are my own personal cheerleaders, and I couldn’t ask for anyone better! You might have a dedication in this book but know that you help me write every single one. Love you!
