Her Warrior Protector
Carter Bear Den is a proud Apache of the Turquoise Canyon Reservation. The former US Marine is a member of the Turquoise Guardians working to protect his people and their land. When he discovers a grisly mass shooting at the Lilac Copper Mine, Carter’s one thought is to find Amber Kitcheyan.
After breaking her engagement to Carter and relinquishing her membership with the reservation, Amber found work at the mine. Now she is the sole survivor of the shooting—at best a witness, at worst a suspect. But Carter swears to protect the only woman he has ever loved, even if it means losing everything else.
Apache Protectors: Tribal Thunder
She wished they could go back in time, back to those two kids who had fallen in love, and try again.
Tell her younger self to be wise and give Carter another chance. But it was too late now because she could never ask him to leave their tribe and she was too ashamed to stay.
Despite her reservations, her heart hammered in giddy excitement and her skin flushed.
Focus. You’re in real trouble and this man doesn’t want a woman who walked away from her family.
Carter had loved her. But he loved his people and his place among them more. He was not leaving and she was not staying. There was no future for them. Only more pain.
“Thank you for saving us back there,” she said.
“I didn’t get us out. I’d have been cuffed to the handgrip in a smoldering wreck if not for you.”
He’d been the reason they had a chance to get out of that SUV and they both knew it.
