The love story of Deke and Justice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please note:\u00a0<\/strong>Unlike the others in this series (which are mass market paperbacks), this is a print-on-demand trade paperback published by Kristen&#8217;s own Rock Chick Press.<\/p>\n<p>Justice Lonesome has enjoyed a life of bounty.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, she\u2019s inherited the curse of the Lonesome. A poet\u2019s soul. Which means she\u2019s still searching for something. Searching for peace. Searching for the less\u2026that\u2019s more.<\/p>\n<p>And when the foundation of her life is pulled out from under her, grieving, she goes to the mountains to find her oasis. She hits Carnal, Colorado and decides to stay.<\/p>\n<p>Deke Hightower lost everything at the age of two. He lost it again at fifteen. His life has not been about bounty. It\u2019s been about learning to live with less, because there\u2019s no way to get more.<\/p>\n<p>Deke\u2019s also watched all his friends go down to the women who gave them what they needed. He wants that for himself. But he knows that search isn\u2019t going to be easy because he\u2019s a rider. His home is the road. That\u2019s the only place he can breathe. And the woman who takes her place at his side has to do it sitting on the back of his bike.<\/p>\n<p>When Deke meets Justice, he knows she\u2019s not that woman. She\u2019s cute. She\u2019s sweet. And she\u2019s into him, but she\u2019s got it all and Deke knows he won\u2019t fit into that. So he holds her at arm\u2019s length. Establishes boundaries. And Justice will take it because she wants Deke any way he\u2019ll let her have him.<\/p>\n<p>But when Justice finds herself a pawn in a dangerous game, Deke makes a decision.<\/p>\n<p>When he does, he has no idea he\u2019s just opened himself up to bounty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bounty\u00a0is the seventh book in\u00a0The Colorado Mountain Series.
