The Horseman's Bride

Description for THE HORSEMAN'S BRIDE by Elizabeth Lane:

A WANTED MAN

Not even a remote Colorado ranch can shelter Jace Denby while he's on the run. He voluntarily took the blame for his brother-in-law's murder, but one danger this fugitive doesn't see coming is impulsive Clara Seavers. With the law on his back he must leave, though her beauty and fierce courage entice him to stay....

Clara doesn't trust this hired farmhand, but she can't deny the rugged, unexpectedly caring man ignites her spirit...and heart. The more Jace fights their mounting passion, the more she'll risk to make him hers forever.
