When the River Rises

Cam has always had a soft spot for dangerous guys. Not that he gets much action, dangerous or otherwise. He never managed to outgrow his baby fat, and the most interesting thing about him is his 4.0 GPA.

When Jake shows up, tall, brooding, and in leather, he seems to have stepped straight out of Cam's fantasies. Except he's not here to ask Cam out-he's a bodyguard sent by Cam's crime-boss aunt.

Her enemies don't care that Cam has no interest in the family business, so Cam reluctantly agrees to go into hiding, not realizing Jake's safe house is a thousand miles away on a remote Nebraska farm, where Jake sheds his leather jacket and handgun for a cowboy hat and a horse.

Maybe Cam has no choice but to trust Jake with his safety. But as the summer wears on in this strange land of wild mustangs, old grudges, and thunderstorms, he doesn't dare trust Jake with his heart.
