      A TEXAS SHERIFF IN NEED OF A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE

      Sheriff Jake McCall is about to break the law. To find a bone marrow donor for his ailing baby girl, he’ll hack into WITSEC to track down Maggie Gallagher—the only person who could be a genetic match. Yet by doing so, he is jeopardizing not only his badge, but Maggie’s life, as well. Expecting to have to force Maggie against her will, Jake is unprepared for her willingness to help—and for the desire and hunger she arouses in him. Still, those forbidden feelings could make Jake reckless, and losing focus now isn’t an option. With time running out and a killer on their heels, Jake has to keep Maggie alive—and give his daughter a Christmas miracle.

      “Has my identity been compromised?”

      “Not that I’m aware of. But I’m here to take you back to Mustang Ridge.”

      “You can’t take me back there, Jake. It’s too dangerous.”

      “I don’t want to harm you.”

      She wasn’t sure she believed that—Jake had good reason to want to do her harm. If only Maggie could go back in time three years....

      “If you’re not taking me to the man who put me in WITSEC, then where are you taking me?”

      “To the hospital for some tests. After that, I’ll let you go.”

      The hospital? “But I’m not sick.”

      Maggie stopped. What would make Jake McCall come all this way to take her to Mustang Ridge for some tests?

      There was only one thing.

      Sunny.

      She reached across the seat and latched onto his jacket, wadding up the fabric in her fists. “What’s wrong? What happened to my niece?”

      ABOUT THE AUTHOR

      Imagine a family tree that includes Texas cowboys, Choctaw and Cherokee Indians, a Louisiana pirate and a Scottish rebel who battled side by side with William Wallace. With ancestors like that, it’s easy to understand why USA TODAY bestselling author and former air force captain Delores Fossen feels as if she were genetically predisposed to writing romances. Along the way to fulfilling her DNA destiny, Delores married an air force top gun who just happens to be of Viking descent. With all those romantic bases covered, she doesn’t have to look too far for inspiration.
