Leaving Liberty, a Western Romance (Book 5) (Texas Hearts)
“It wasn’t his office. It was a strange desk in a town he’d never been to before. But that was nothing new. He was used to traveling to different towns in Texas to investigate crime that fell under his jurisdiction.
But it wasn’t just his job that weighed heavy on his mind. It was the woman who’d been consuming his thoughts for days now.
Libby was right about one thing. This case should have been wrapped up and tied with a big ribbon weeks ago. If it were any other case, he’d have filed his report and moved on to the next town. That’s how he lived his life. He’d hid from troubles that had fractured his family over the years, starting with his father’s rages as he reared four active boys, and ending with the death of his mother, something that had shattered them all. He hadn’t always been away, he’d been hiding in his work. But every so often he met someone who showed him through action exactly what he’d been doing.
Almost from the first, Jackson had seen something in Libert...y Calvert that he recognized in himself.MoreLess
