For newly appointed police chief Cash Grier, life in rural southeast Texas was quite a departure from his former world But Cash had learned never to take anything at face value and even now he sniffed an undercurrent of unrest. Then complications arose when he found himself distracted by desire for Tippy Moore–the 'Georgia Firefly'.

Before long Cash, a man who prided himself on self–restraint, found himself powerless to resist their explosive chemistry.

As Cash licked his wounds, sharply hewn instincts alerted him that Tippy was in grave jeopardy. In a race against time he rode to the rescue but in the aftermath of a harrowing ordeal, the Tippy who Cash whisked home would not be the same woman. Now all roads led to this one pivotal moment that would test the very fabric of love that had once known no bounds
