Dark Country

||A Beauty, a Beast, and a mythic Wild West||

Captain James Dawson knew that her life wasn't going to get any easier by making a deal with a captured "fairy" prince. But when the terms of the bargain involve her deepest fear, she can't imagine how her life could get any worse.

Sheriff Kelyn Creedy isn't who he says he is, but he starts to think that's for the best when his mail-order bride isn't as advertised either. The woman who calls herself "Jayme Vann" is strong-willed to a fault, suspicious of men, uneasy around his kin, and afraid of her own power. She's running from something, too, and the longer she refuses to tell him why, the more the Sheriff suspects that ignorance might be blissful after all.

As murder and myth spiral out of control around them, Kelyn and Jayme begin to see that there's a beast inside them both. Kelyn is a killer. Jayme is a lie. But they might find beauty in their darkness, if they can trust each other long enough for it to bloom.
