"Special Agent Tucker Snow knows there's big money roaming the fields under the wide Texas sky--and the cattle rustlers committing largescale thefts on remote ranches know it, too. But when a prominent local rancher dies unexpectedly and his property is quietly sold to an unknown buyer, Tucker suspects there's something more sinister going on in his jurisdiction than the usual steal-and-resell racket. Still raw after the tragic death of his wife and young daughter, the lawman can't bear the thought of more innocent lives destroyed by people whose greed poisons everything around them. Working alongside his brother, Harley, Tucker uncovers a dark ring of organized crime that goes well beyond cattle rustling--a breed of deception and greed that has turned into a silent killer and will take down anyone who crosses its path. The question is whether Tuck and Harley will be able to shut it down before it finds the people they love the most..."--

"Every heart has a price. She offered him $$10,000 to seduce her father's gold-digging fiancée. He countered with $$15,000 and a kiss -- from her. At any time he chose. Kris should've said no, but she was desperate to get rid of her stepmother-to-be, and the gorgeous actor with the wicked grin was perfect for the job. So she agreed to his terms -- not knowing that doing so would cost her a lot more than money and a kiss... He did it for the money -- which he desperately needed. The kiss was just a bonus -- or so he told himself. Melting an ice princess like Kris started as a challenge, but by the time Nate realized there was more to Kris than meets the eye, it was too late: he had fallen. But they're not just from opposite sides of the track -- they're from different worlds. And when those worlds collide, Kris and Nate must decide whether they're willing to give up what they have for what could be..."--
