      IDENTITY UNKNOWN

      A baby’s frantic cries lead Texas Ranger Drake Jackson to an injured woman in Big Bend Park, the infant by her side. But “Kay” has no idea who she is or what happened. All she seems sure of is that she’s in terrible danger. When someone comes after her—determined to snatch the child—Drake takes her and little Kaleb to his family’s ranch to protect them. But with the attackers circling closer as Christmas approaches, the guarded ranger knows they won’t be safe there for long. Vowing to uncover her identity and catch her attacker, Drake plans to give mother and child the holiday they deserve...safe by his side forever.

      “Shh,” Kay whispered to the baby.

      She started moving again, not sure which way to go.

      A noise to the right startled her. The play of light and dark in the woods confused her. Was she still moving away from her assailant?

      Then a large shadow stepped out from behind a tree, and she ran into a solid, muscular body.

      He gripped her arms with an ironclad hold. When she yelled for help, baby Kaleb bawled. Her assailant yanked on Kaleb, but he was secured against her in the baby carrier. The brute jerked harder.

      As they struggled, Kay kicked the man’s shin. He couldn’t take her child. She poured all her energy into protecting Kaleb.

      When she scanned the darkness surrounding her, she suddenly didn’t see her assailant.

      “Kay, I’m here!” Drake shouted. “Are y’all okay?”

      All the tension in her body siphoned from her. Now she was. “Yes.”

      Drake clicked on a flashlight and swept the area with the bright beam, then stepped next to her. “He’s gone. You and the baby are safe now.”

      For now.

      Dear Reader,

      Can you imagine waking up one day and you can’t even recall your name? It would totally shake up your life from dealing with large issues to small ones. I think we tend to take for granted who we are and our memories. But what if all that was taken away from you?

      In Lone Star Christmas Rescue, I explore what happens to a person when she doesn’t remember who she is. Our personalities are formed by our past. Our experiences shape who we are. When Kay’s memory is wiped away, she has to struggle to find herself. She doesn’t know who to trust or how she ended up with amnesia. Even when she begins to remember bits and pieces of her previous life, she doesn’t know if she will ever remember everything.
