"Wonderful romance with lots of suspense."

This is Brady Coleman's last assignment with the DEA. A failed attempt to apprehend Garcia's drug running organization two years earlier cut down three good agents -- three good friends. The pain, guilt and utter remorse have been endless. Maybe this time, with success in destroying Garcia's organization, Brady will get a sense of resolution so he can retire in peace.

Celia Remington wants the drug trafficking on her West Texas ranch to stop. Being the single mom of a 13-year-old daughter is not easy and holding the ranch together is of great importance to her. It's her family's legacy and future. Celia is expecting a female agent from the DEA, but tall, dark and ruggedly handsome Brady Coleman arrives instead. Suspense builds to a powerful crescendo as secrets are uncovered, trust is put to the test and lives are at risk.

Brady and Celia are two strong, independent people who've endured hardships from the past. But a hunger sweeps through them so fiercely it cannot be denied. In each other's arms, they feel the awakening of hopes and dreams, the healing power of love and the ultimate joy of coming home.

OPERATION: TEXAS takes us on a suspenseful journey, capturing our senses and, at the same time, warming us with a heartfelt love story. A wonderful read that should not be missed.
