Nelson's Brand
by Diana Palmer

A gentle ex-missionary and a daredevil rancher fight to overcome their haunted pasts in this opposites-attract romance from #1 New York Times bestselling author Diana Palmer!

Hidden away from the world, Allison Hathoway is a woman with a heavy past. A former missionary, her life took a tragic turn when she was taken captive with her now-deceased parents in Central America. Now, she seeks solace among friends, all the while evading media attention and living in uncertainty. Then, she crosses paths with a rogue cowboy, Gene Nelson.

When Gene Nelson discovered the scandalous truth about his family, he realized his whole life was a lie. Ever since, he's been footloose and reckless. He's a danger to her reputation but Allison is drawn to the thrilling intensity of Gene, their undeniable attraction pulling them together.

There's something different about secretive Allison, though, even if his heart warns him away...at all costs.
