Lone Star on a Cowboy Heart (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781648907494)

When Montgomery Clarke saves Deputy Sam Roswell's life during an armed robbery, both men go home thinking they'll never cross paths again. Instead, a friendship blossoms between them as they work together to track down a wanted man: the surviving robber who escaped the scene of the crime with a sack of cash.

Drawn to each other despite their starkly different personalities, Montgomery and Sam quickly bond in a way neither man has with anyone else in years. Their friendship awakens Sam's long-buried and unexplored romantic feelings for men, while reviving Montgomery's deepest longing: for a platonic life partner. Sparked by violence, Sam and Montgomery's connection becomes cemented in yet another dangerous confrontation when they finally catch up to Joel Troutman, the robber on the run.

A year later, Montgomery and Sam are best friends with an exceptionally intimate relationship. What should be their first happy Christmas season together, however, suddenly turns sour when Montgomery gives Sam the cold shoulder without explanation. Brought together once again by crime-this time, one involving a teenage girl-Sam and Montgomery reckon with their feelings for each other. Will they remain friends or become partners?
