      “If Anything Happens To Me...”

      When he returns to Texas from overseas, U.S. Marine Carter Wallace makes good on a promise. To tell a fallen soldier’s wife that her husband loved her. But widowed Savannah Blackmore, pregnant and alone, shares a different story with Carter—one that tests everything he believes. He brings Savannah back to the Triple C ranch, where family secrets—and siblings he hadn’t known about—await him. Now the marine who never needed anyone suddenly needs Savannah. Will opening his heart be the bravest thing he’ll ever do?

      “It’s very nice of you to offer me a place to stay.” Savannah regarded him warily.

      “But,” she continued, “I’m sure that when your sister offered you a place to stay, she wasn’t expecting you to pass it on to a random stranger.”

      Savannah wasn’t a stranger. Carter had carried her photograph around in his pocket for two months.

      For a moment it looked as if Savannah was wavering. But then her chin came up.

      “You don’t have to worry about me. I know you were Rob’s friend, but I’m not your responsibility.”

      “When I make a promise, I keep it.”

      “And you did. You delivered Rob’s message—”

      “Not that promise,” Carter interrupted. “I’m a marine, ma’am. And we never leave a man—or a woman—behind.”
