Hoping to cool off a twenty-five-year-old feud between two neighboring families Cassie Stuart only succeeds in pouring kerosene on the flames. Both sides have warned her to get out of Texas pronto. . .or they will burn her father's ranch to the ground. What Cassie needs is a peacemaker but she ends up with a widow-maker instead. He is called Angel a ruggedly handsome hired gun with eyes as black as sin. Unwanted and unwelcomed by his ungrateful employer he would just as soon leave Cassie to fend for herself. But a stubborn sense of duty and a desire to taste the sweetness of her kiss steels Angel's resolve to make Cassie want him come hell or high water. . .and for more than his gun alone.
