Outsider - Tapa dura

Meet Colby Lane, the Long, Tall Texan Diana Palmer’s fans have been clamoring for―a man who is larger than life, and twice as exciting.

The New York Times bestselling author delivers to readers a thrilling story set against the rugged, ever-changing south Texas landscape. Former black ops CIA operative Colby Lane, now retired from his wild years as a mercenary, has found his new calling as assistant chief of security for the mammoth Ritter Oil Corporation.

But the past is never far behind. He’s soon enmeshed in plans to trap a notorious drug trafficker, and it seems that his ex-wife, Sarina Carrington―whom he so cruelly left after one day of marriage―may be more involved than she’s letting on. Not only that, but Sarina has a six-year-old dark-eyed daughter whose father is mysteriously absent―or is he?
