Jessie's Outlaw
Porter, Cheryl Anne
TRAIL OF DESIRE

A lonely orphan, Jessie Stuart never imagined that her dreams of happiness would be fulfilled until a wounded man appeared in her root cellar. Exasperating, infuriating, and unbelievably handsome, the stranger had secrets to hide and enemies to flee. Whoever he was, whatever he had done, Jessie longed to help him, no matter how great the danger to her life or virtue. As deadly gunrunners pursued the desperate pair across the scorching New Mexican desert, the sassy girl would have to dodge bullets and the law and silence the desperado's protests with her sweet lips if she ever hoped to unleash the wild, tantalizing ecstasy of their love.
