Captives of the Canyon (Frontier Brides, Book 4)

by Colleen L. Reece

A team of doctors has issued Linnet Allen a dire prognosis: early death. Fighting despair and with nothing to lose, Linnet and her father Judd accept an invitation to Judd's brothers's Utah ranch. Far from a sterile sanitarium, the Rocking A Ranch in Moab, Utah, is a no-frills working ranch of the 1890s, surrounded by wild horses, breathtaking views, and ruthless outlaws.

Wild horses bring former cowboy Andy Cullen to these unsettled parts, and he won't leave until one particular stallion is his. Seemingly, Andy and the frail Linnet have little in common, yet looks can be deceiving. For as determined as the cowboy is to possess the ebony-coated Sheik, so one young woman is to claim life and the dreams of love.

But until their dreams become reality, if ever they do, both will be captives of the canyon.

About the author

COLLEEN L. REECE writes under the pen name Connie Loraine and is one of Heartsong's most popular authors. Colleen learned to read beneath the rays of a kerosene lamp. The kitchen, dining room, and her bedroom in her home near the small logging town of Darrington, Washington, were once a one-room schoolhouse where her mother taught all eight grades! An abundance of love for God outweighed the lack of electricity or running water and provided the basis for many of Colleen's 140+ books.

Her rigid "refuse to compromise" stance has helped sell more than 6 million copies that help spread the good news of repentance, forgiveness, and salvation through Christ. Colleen helped launch Barbour Publishing's Romance Reader flip books, the American Adventure series, and her own Juli Scott Super Sleuth Christian teen mystery series. In 1998 Colleen was inducted into the HeartSong Hall of Fame in recognition for her contribution to Heartsong's success.
