Midnight Thunder. Vicki Thompson Lewis

      The lost cowboy...

      Thunder Mountain Ranch was the only place cowboy Cade Gallagher had ever called home. But after he and Lexi Simmons broke each other’s hearts, he left it behind, along with his foster family. Since then, Cade has drifted, looking for something—anything—to call home. Until a call from Lexi changes everything...

      Cade has been gone too long. His foster mother is hospitalized, and the ranch is in deep financial trouble. Yet even as his world crumbles, Cade’s hunger for Lexi is almost as tangible as the taste of her lips and the way her body fits deliciously against his. It’s bittersweet surrender. But Lexi isn’t the girl she used to be, and she’s determined to have the hot cowboy in her bed only if she keeps him out of her heart.

      “Intensely romantic and hot enough to singe...her Sons of Chance series never fails to leave me worked up from all the heat, and then sighing with pleasure at the happy endings!”

      —We Read Romance on Riding High

      “If I had to use one word to describe Ambushed! it would be charming.... Where the story shines and how it is elevated above others is the humor that is woven throughout.”

      —Dear Author

      “The chemistry between Molly and Ben is off the charts: their first kiss is one of the best I’ve ever read, and the sex is blistering and yet respectful, tender and loving.”

Dear Reader,

      I love beginnings! I especially love beginnings that involve cowboys and the women who love them. Welcome to Thunder Mountain Brotherhood! I’ve been excited about this series from the moment I envisioned a ranch that once housed foster boys. As they learned to ride and rope, they also learned the cowboy code of integrity, courage and loyalty.

      Now grown men, they share a love of Thunder Mountain Ranch and a bond stronger than if they’d been born brothers. This summer you’ll meet three of them, starting with Cade Gallagher. I can’t wait for you to meet Cade, and Lexi, the unforgettable woman he left behind.

      I can’t wait for you to meet all of them, in fact! None of these guys had an easy start in life, and they have scars both inside and out. That makes them challenging to love, but I have a hunch you’ll end up falling for them as quickly as I did.

      For those of you who enjoyed my Sons of Chance series, rest assured that you’ll see glimpses of those characters, because I couldn’t abandon them completely! I predict you’ll have fun watching them pop up now and then. In the meantime, come with me to Thunder Mountain Ranch and let me introduce you to some very hot cowboys. We’re going to have a great time this summer!

      Enthusiastically yours,

      Midnight Thunder
