I WILL TAME HER OR I WILL BREAK HER I caught Sadie Granger with a stolen horse and a heart full of fire. She is a thief, a spitfire, and a woman destined for the gallows. The town elders want a Sheriff with a wife to prove I have settled down, and I want the woman who tried to outrun me. I gave her a choice between the noose and my name. She took the ring, but she has no idea what it costs to belong to a man like me. My ranch is not the town. Out here, my word is the only law that matters. Sadie thinks she can still run. She thinks her sharp tongue and defiant eyes will save her from my authority. She is wrong. Every act of rebellion is met with the weight of my hand. I am taming the wildness out of her, one correction at a time. She is learning that her place is at my side, and her safety is found in her surrender. Her old gang is coming to take her back. Maverick McGraw thinks he can reclaim what I have claimed as mine. He is bringing fire and blood to my doorstep to settle an old debt. He will find a man who does not negotiate and a husband who protects his own. I will hold my ground against the outlaws and the town council alike. Sadie is mine to discipline, mine to protect, and mine to keep. I will break her spirit until she realizes my iron grip is her only sanctuary.
