What does a man do when the past he buried refuses to stay dead? Tom killed the man he used to be — or so he thought. As one of the Bounty Brothers, he hunts outlaws to atone for sins he’s locked away where no one can reach them, guarding a past so fiercely that even his closest friends only know pieces of it. Love cost him everything once. He’s vowed to never love again. Bethany Kellinger has spent eight months chipping away at his walls, watching a guarded, solitary man vanish without explanation and flinch from anything resembling a future. She knows there’s more beneath his silence begging to be free, and she refuses to walk away — even as his secrets creep closer, coiling around her like a threat she can’t yet see. When the ruthless man who forged Tom into a gunslinger rides into town, the past Tom buried claws its way to the surface. Forced to slip back into the deadly persona he swore he’d left behind, Tom fights to protect the woman he loves — even as every move drags her deeper into danger. Can he keep the good man he’s fought so hard to become, or will the darkness swallow him whole before he can reach the future Bethany has offered him? Her stubborn, unrelenting love is starting to look a lot like grace he never thought he deserved. But first, he’ll have to stand against his past — and trust that God’s mercy cuts deeper than anything he’s done.
