Secrets Branded

By: A. S. Mendez

She’s survived war, betrayal, and a marriage that nearly destroyed her. Now Dakota Taylor wants only one thing: peace on her Colorado ranch.

But peace is fragile.

When former cop Colt Ramirez shows up at her gate—no badge, no questions, just looking for work as a ranch hand—Dakota’s walls go up. He’s the man who once handed her a business card, a lifeline she never used. Now he’s back, escaping prejudice and stirring feelings she swore she buried.

Then the past comes hunting. Her violent ex has returned, and the danger closing in is deadlier than anything she’s faced before. Dakota doesn’t need saving—she never has. But she and Colt will have to trust each other with more than secrets if they want to survive.

Because some scars fade.

But some secrets never let go.

They’re branded into the soul.
