Woman on the Run

STRANGER IN A STRANGE LAND

Julia Devaux loves big cities, chic cafes, old movies, and charming men. But after seeing a mafia don whack one of his minions, she is relocated under the Witness Protection Program to a small isolated town in the middle of nowhere. Simpson, Idaho doesn't have chic cafes or cult movie theaters or even sidewalks. And it definitely doesn't have charming men.

However, it does have Sam Cooper, former Navy SEAL and war hero, now horse breeder, who makes her feel safe and excited at the same time. True, he doesn't have charming conversation, but conversation isn't what Cooper does best.

WHO WAS SHE?

The gorgeous new second-grade school teacher who just showed up one day in Simpson is a miracle in Cooper's eyes. Beautiful and smart and kind, she has the town of Simpson wrapped around her little finger. His heart, too, though he doesn't have the words to tell her that. But when killers come for her, Cooper doesn't need words to show what he feels. He's willing to lay down his life for her.
