About The Touch Of Fire

SHE WAS A LADY DOCTOR...HE WAS A DESPERATE OUTLAW. ONLY HER HEALING TOUCH COULD IGNITE HIS HEART'S HIDDEN PASSION. Annie Parker came to Silver Mesa, Arizona, because it was the only place she'd found where folks thought a woman doctor was better than no doctor at all. Her lonely life became harder still on the winter night Rafe McCay broke into her office with a bullet in his side and a bounty hunter on his back. With a gun aimed at her heart, he led her deep into the Arizona mountains, and into a world of danger and passion, for Annie discovered in Rafe not only a wounded man, but a soul betrayed...and Rafe, healed by her skill and the magic in her hands, awakened in Annie a woman's tender longing and desire. Pursued by dangerous secrets of the past, they are swept into a thrilling odyssey of the heart - a bold, exhilarating journey that rekindles Rafe's lost hope and transforms Annie's healing gift into a deep, enduring love.
