Love and Protect A Small Town Romantic Suspense Novel

A woman with no one to trust, a man hell bent on making sure he never lets her down. The monster Laura Kensington married is dead, but that doesn't mean she escape his family. The ruthless and powerful Kensington clan consider the baby she's carrying to be their own. Desperate and determined, she flees to Evers, Texas, with a new identity, taking refuge on the ranch of Cade Bishop, a man who firmly believes in second chances. Drawn to the strong man who has dedicated his life to the rescue of neglected animals, Laura finds comfort in his passion and his love, yet she fears he sees her as merely another needy case. She'll need more from Cade than his tender touch and understanding heart when her past resurfaces, bringing grave peril into her world once more. Relentless enemies, anticipated and unexpected, are drawing closer by the day, ensnaring her in a deadly web of deception, betrayal, and murder. And her only hope of breaking free lies in Cade's powerful, loving heart. Love and Protect was previously published under the titles Ever Hopeful and Love and Protect.
