Críticas
"Denver Post" This fast-paced absorbing novel bursts with lively dialogue and with all the colorful drama an untamed land can offer. More important, though, it vibrates with full-dimensional engaging characters encompassing the complete spectrum of humanity and subtly complementing and contrasting with each other.

"San Francisco Chronicle" Williamson knows how to spin a lively yarn, and she's not afraid to take the time to develop substantial, multidimensional characters who keep the reader galloping through the pages.

But then the outsider appeared in her life, and from that moment on, nothing would be the same. The man she had rescued called himself Cain. He was handsome, with a haunting kind of male beauty that she found impossible to resist, even knowing he was a killer, as his named suggested.
