About this ebook

Julia Gilliland has always been interested in the natural world around her. She particularly enjoys her outings to the cavern near her father's homestead, where she explores for fossils and formations, and plans to write a book about her discoveries. The cave seems plenty safe--until the day a mysterious intruder steals the rope she uses to find her way out.

Rafe Kincaid has spent years keeping his family's cattle ranch going, all without help from his two younger brothers, who fled the ranch--and Rafe's controlling ways--as soon as they were able. He's haunted by one terrible day at the cave on a far-flung corner of the Kincaid property, a day that changed his life forever. Ready to put the past behind him, he plans to visit the cave one final time. He sure doesn't expect to find a young woman trapped in one of the tunnels--or to be forced to kiss her!

Rafe is more intrigued by Julia than any woman he's ever known, but how can he overlook her fascination with the cave he despises? And when his developing relationship with Julia threatens his chance at reconciliation with his brothers, will he be forced to choose between the family bonds that could restore his trust and the love that could heal his heart?

Ratings and reviews

Hi. Ilove this author and many of her books I've read several times. I love the other two I n this series and I love the male characters and Audrey . The female viper Julia is not my favorite she's shallow and self serving towards her now ends no matter she used Seth not caring the greed of character of selfish goal I had to quit reading . guess she was set a an example of a person I wouldn't want to know.

Leading lady is incredibly annoying. Zero common sense! Bossy! I couldn't stand her or the lead man. Not a fan of the writting style.

Great writing with a terrific mix of suspense, humor, pathos and intrigue! I could not read fast enough to find out who was after Julia and what would happen with her and Rafe!
