Lone Heart Pass (Ransom Canyon)

Lone Heart Pass (Ransom Canyon) by Thomas, Jodi. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780373789849.

Where family bonds are made and broken, and where young love sparks as old flames grow dim, Ransom Canyon is ready to welcome—and shelter—those who need it With a career and a relationship in ruins, Jubilee Hamilton is left reeling from a fast fall to the bottom. The run-down Texas farm shes inherited is a far cry from the second chance she hoped for, but it and the abrasive foreman shes forced to hire are all shes got. Every time Charley Collins has let a woman get close, hes been burned. So Lone Heart ranch and the contrary woman who owns it are merely a means to an end, until Jubilee tempts him to take another risk—to stop resisting the attraction drawing them together despite all his hard-learned logic. Desperation is all young Thatcher Jones knows. And when he finds himself mixed up in a murder investigation, his only protection is the shelter of a man and woman who—just like him—need someone to trust.
