Damaris Baxter has mastered the art of invisibility. Plain and quiet, she hides in books and needlework, content to be overlooked. Until her brother dies suddenly, leaving her custody of her nephew. She moves to Texas to care for Nathaniel, determined to create the family for herself that she never thought she'd have and to give him the family he desperately needs.
When Nate finds himself knee-deep in trouble, Luke's attempt to protect him leaves Damaris feeling indebted to the Horseman. But suspicions grow regarding the mysterious death of Damaris's brother. And the more questions they ask, the more danger appears, threatening the family Luke may be unable to live without.
My review: This is another great book by Ms. Witemeyer as she continues Hanger's Horsemen saga. This is Luke's story. Luke is restless after the Horsemen have retired. So he takes off to track down some rustlers. He meets up with Damaris who has very little self confidence. She has come to Texas to care for her nephew Nate after her brother has been killed. Luke is struggling with his own demons of self worth. As the story progresses, he is beat up and left for dead. Damaris takes care of him and nurses him back to health. Along the way Luke discovers that Damaris' brother was murdered for his land. Now they are after Damaris to sell the land or she will be killed along with her nephew. With the help of Luke and the rest of the Horsemen the truth comes out.
I was given this book by Bethany Hour Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was not compensated in any way.
