Introduced
to Jacob Donovan in a bar one night, Sallie Hamblen can’t let on that she has
already met him—three years ago when both had different names and a different
life. Back then, they instantly hit it off and spent three sizzling nights
together before he mysteriously disappeared. Jacob doesn’t recognize Sallie,
which saddens her, but she wonders if it’s for the best considering so much has
changed in the three years since they parted. From what she has heard, shortly
after they separated, Jacob was injured in an explosion that took part of his
memory—the days that include their time spent together. Now they are like any
other couple meeting for the first time. And like the last time, they hit it
off. It doesn’t take long before Jacob and Sallie are spending a
pleasure-filled night together.
So
much has changed for Sallie and Jacob in the past three years. Back then, she
was the adored stepdaughter of the ambassador. She met Jacob, then an
undercover CIA operative, which she didn’t know about, and fell hard for him.
The sex was fast, beautiful, and explosive between them. Then he walked out of
her life. Eventually, she married another man, Jacob’s partner, but that
marriage ended, and an annulment was obtained. Then the threats against her
life started and her adoptive father arranged a new identity for her and
plucked her down in this small Texas town. She soon realized that Jacob was
also here, but he was now under a different last name and is a cowboy. And he doesn’t
recognize her. Sallie stayed in the background watching Jacob, but it was
inevitable that they’d meet again—and that they would find their attraction
insatiable. Then, the danger that she thought she’d escaped returns to haunt
her. Will Sallie have to run again?
For
Sallie in STRONG, SILENT COWBOY, she believes the bad guys are after her
ex-husband. She doesn’t realize at first that Jacob was also a CIA undercover
agent. To her, he was just that handsome hunk who swept her off her feet and
made love to her. Having him walk out of her life—and now not remember
her—pains her so much. But Sallie can’t reveal her identity to Jacob because it
would put both their lives in danger. However, unknown to her, once Jacob meets
Sallie and has sex with her again, he begins to have flashes of her in his
memory. Will it all come back? Jacob has also been laying low in Deer Haven
because of his past CIA work. The bad guys are ruthless terrorists who torture
their victims before brutally killing them. He can’t afford to let someone he
cares for be lost to these barbaric murderers.
Meanwhile,
Jacob can’t get enough of Sallie in his bed. He proclaims to her that it’s simply
great sex, but deep down, does he care more for her than he’s willing to admit?
Sallie lost her heart to Jacob once…will she lose it again? Their relationship
starts off hot and heavy in STRONG, SILENT COWBOY, then shifts to a riveting
suspense when it becomes clear that the terrorists have targeted Sallie once
more. Jacob believes they are after him, but to convince Sallie of this, he
will have to reveal more about his past to her. But that might put her life in
even more danger…

other, you won’t want to miss STRONG, SILENT COWBOY.
