A REPUBLIC OF TEXAS ROMANCE!
Beautiful young Emilie Barrett is alone and penniless in the wild frontier town of Houston, until David Ashland appears, offering her a position as companion to a young woman who lives at his uncle’s cotton plantation. Half in love with her gallant rescuer, Emilie accepts. But she arrives at Brazos Bend to find herself instantly pursued by the estate’s mercurial master—David’s tormented uncle, Edgar Ashland. Handsome and arrogant, Edgar is a notorious recluse with a terrible temper. He is also the most masterful, sexy, and compelling man Emilie has ever met—and he seems equally enthralled by her. To Emilie’s horror, Edgar soon maneuvers her into marriage.

Edgar’s passions are as fierce and turbulent as the demons haunting him from his first marriage and the Texas War for Independence. Why did Edgar’s first wife die? And who doesn’t want Emilie to remain in this house? Falling hopelessly in love with her enigmatic husband, Emilie realizes she must tame the beast in Edgar before the ghosts of his past destroy them both.
