      “Stop me.”

      She was taunted by a killer.

      Margaret Daley’s thrilling Lone Star Justice series continues, this time pitting radio therapist Dr. Caitlyn Rhodes against a methodical murderer. First, her patients are found dead, then the mocking phone calls start. The evidence is pointing Texas Ranger Ian Pierce to one conclusion: he must protect Caitlyn from becoming this vicious killer’s next victim...before he loses the woman he once loved—for good.

      MARGARET DALEY, an award-winning author of ninety books (five million sold worldwide), has been married for over forty years and is a firm believer in romance and love. When she isn’t traveling, she’s writing love stories, often with a suspense thread, and corralling her three cats, who think they rule her household.

      Fear struck her as she opened the door.

      The office was destroyed—a chaotic mess in front of her.

      Ian grabbed her before she could walk in. “Stay here. Let me check it out.” He withdrew his gun and slipped past her.

      Moments later she followed him inside. Ripped papers and books, smashed objects littered the floor, along with items from storage boxes, a foot deep. She stepped into the bathroom, surprisingly left untouched. Then she saw it. STOP ME was written on the mirror in bold black letters. She shook her head, as though in shock, not believing what she was seeing.

      “Caitlyn?”

      Finally their gazes embraced across the turmoil, tears pooling in her eyes. He came to her and she plastered herself against him, her whole body shaking.

      “Why would someone do this?” she asked.

      “He left a message on the mirror.”

      A shudder rippled down her spine. No. “He doesn’t want me to stop him. He wants to scare me...and then kill me.”

      Dear Reader,

      Texas Ranger Showdown is my third book in my Lone Star Justice series about Texas Rangers, the state police in Texas. I love writing about strong heroes and heroines. In this story, I wanted my heroine to be the target of a killer who made it personal and taunted her. As a therapist, Caitlyn had faced a traumatic situation that had changed her life. She used her pain to help others solve their problems. She had to dig deep to deal with the killer who wanted to destroy Caitlyn’s life.

      I love hearing from readers. You can contact me at [email protected] or at PO Box 2074 Tulsa, OK 74101. You can also learn more about my books at www.margaretdaley.com. I have a monthly newsletter that you can sign up for on my website.

      Best wishes,
