Tracker's Sin (Hell's Eight) by McCarty, Sarah. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780373605484.

Before his trade became his name, "Tracker" Ochoa was a scrawny Mestizo runaway. Now as fearsome as he once was frightened, hes joined the notorious Hells Eight…and they have a job for him. He must rescue kidnapped heiress Ari Blake and deliver her safely to the Hells Eight compound—by any means necessary. Turns out that includes marrying her, if he means to escort her and her infant daughter across the Texas Territory. Tracker hadnt bargained on a wife—especially such a fair, blue-eyed beauty. But the erotic pleasures of the marriage bed more than make up for the surprise. Trackers well-muscled bronze skin and dark, dangerous eyes are far more exciting than any of Aris former debutante dreams. In the light of day, though, his deep scars and brooding intensity terrify her. But hes her husband and shes at his mercy. With the frontier against them and mercenary bandits at their heels, Ari fears shell never feel safe again. Tracker, too, remembers what fear feels like. Though he burns to protect Ari, to keep her for himself always, he knows that money, history—and especially the truth—can tear them apart.
