#1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller returns to Stone Creek with a classic tale of two strangers running from dangerous secrets
The past has a way of catching up with folks in Stone Creek, Arizona. But schoolmarm Lark Morgan and Marshal Rowdy Rhodes are determined to hide their secrets—and deny their instant attraction. That should be easy, since each suspects the other of living a lie….
Yet Rowdy and Lark share one truth: both face real dangers. Such as the gang of train robbers heading their way, men Ranger Sam O’Ballivan expects Rowdy to nab. As past and current troubles collide, Rowdy and Lark must surrender their pride to the greatest power of all—undying love.

A Wanted Man: A Stone Creek Novel
Linda Lael Miller
Dear Reader,
I’m so excited you’re back in Stone Creek again! A Wanted Man is the story of two passionate people with secrets to keep. Rowdy Rhodes appeared very briefly in The Man from Stone Creek, and the first time he walked onto the stage of my mind, I knew he would have his own story. Rowdy is a fascinating enigma, an outlaw with honor, a fugitive with courage, a teller of truth whose whole life is basically a lie. Lark Morgan, the woman he didn’t plan on meeting, let alone loving, is guarding dangerous secrets of her own. So come along with Rowdy, Lark and me on a journey to Stone Creek as it was in the turbulent early years of the last century.
I would also like to tell you about the scholarship program that I finance—Linda Lael Miller Scholarships for Women, awarded to those seeking to improve their lot in life through education. You can find more information on my website, www.lindalaelmiller.com.
Also, be sure to look out for a brand-new book coming in June, the start of a fresh trilogy set in Parable, Montana. Big Sky Summer is the story of Walker Parrish, handsome rodeo cowboy turned stock contractor, and Casey Elder, a fiery redheaded country and western singer. The secret they’re keeping will either bond them forever at the heart, or drive them apart. I can’t wait for you to mosey on back to Parable and step into their world!
Happy reading!
For Shaun Bleecker, who identifies so strongly with Rowdy—perhaps because he’s a hero, too.
