Natalie Baker is the daughter of the most feared judge in Texas, but she is running for her life. When a mountain storm strands her in the cabin of Luke Jackson-the very outlaw her father sentenced to hang - she expects a monster. Instead, she finds a rugged giant whose raw strength and dark gaze awaken a hunger she never knew existed. Isolated by the snow and bound by a dangerous attraction, Luke claims what he wants, and Natalie finds herself craving the touch of the man she was taught to hate. In the untamed wild, bloodlines do not matter - only the heat between a man and the woman he intends to make his own.
