Synopsis

Brianna McGraw ventures out West to find and rescue her brother from bandits who will sell him illegally to the highest bidder. Separated after they were orphaned a few years ago, Brianna has worked hard as a librarian to save money for the trip. But when she arrives, she realizes she has to somehow come up with a thousand dollars to buy him back. She then sees a wanted poster with a sufficient reward and decides to become a bounty hunter, accomplishing two good deeds at once - bringing a criminal to justice and saving her brother. Trey Morgan's renegade days are long over. He is at home on his ranch, tending to his cattle, when Brianna appears and arrests him. He is more amused than concerned, wondering how she thinks she's going to drag him 900 miles through the mountains. To his surprise, Brianna proves over and over again that she is intelligent and strong enough to make the long and grueling trip. While he quietly observes his beautiful captor, his discomfort grows when she begins to win more and more of his respect and admiration. Soon, the threat his beautiful captor holds over him is not so much in the pistol she wields, but the lasso she has firmly fastened over his heart.

About this title

About the Author:

Nancy J. Parra believes that a good story has the power to change the world.

Nancy holds a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Kansas, but turned to writing fiction when she discovered it was more fun to interview the people in her head. She lives in the Midwest with her wonderful husband, her two almost perfect children, and a mutt named George Bernard, who grew to unexpected proportions.

A Wanted Man is the second offering in AVALON's Morgan Family Romance series.

Review:

"A WANTED MAN hooked me from the very first sentence. I read this exciting book in one sitting, stopping only long enough to fix dinner. Brianna is a wonderful heroine -- gutsy, scared but determined, and the life of someone she loves is on the line.

A WANTED MAN is a sweet romance that you will want to read more than once. The small hardback book packs a wallop and will lasso your interest from the starting gate." - Vickie McDonough -- The Word on Romance

"A WANTED MAN is a very well written, entertaining read." - Lee Darrow -- The Lebanon Daily Record

*Starred review* "Readers who like feisty, resourceful heroines...will find much to admire in this story of a librarian who does us all proud." - Shelley Mosley -- Booklist
