Book Description
Will this growly protector break her book-loving heart . . . or become her second chance at love? Savanna Vasquez lost her Navy SEAL husband years ago to terrorists, and she doesn't think she's capable of falling in love again. So, she busies herself by running her café and buries her face in the pages of fiction for a romantic escape. But when her late husband's brother finds his way into her life, bringing a world of danger with him, Savanna is protected by a group of tough former Army guys. She feels like she's inside one of her favorite novels, but she's not so sure if her happily-ever-after will be guaranteed, especially when she finds herself alone with one of the dangerously handsome Delta operators. After twenty years of serving his country in the Army, Griffin Andrews now works for an elite security team. When he's sent on a mission to protect a friend of the firm, he never expects to meet a woman who will bring his dead heart back to life. In Griffin's eyes, Savanna's still married, even if only in her heart--which means she's off-limits. Forget the fact she's also his assignment. With her being hunted by an unknown number of threats, he needs to focus on her safety and not the way she feels in his arms. Griffin's resolve begins to slip the more time they spend together and his self-control snaps. The unexplainable connection between them has them both wondering if maybe they were brought together for another reason. And as Griffin does everything in his power to save Savanna, he discovers there's a chance she just might save him too. From Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Brittney Sahin, comes a thrilling new series, full of sizzle and suspense.

Buffalo for the Broken Heart
Author: Dan O'Brien
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0307430731
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
For twenty years Dan O’Brien struggled to make ends meet on his cattle ranch in South Dakota. But when a neighbor invited him to lend a hand at the annual buffalo roundup, O’Brien was inspired to convert his own ranch, the Broken Heart, to buffalo. Starting with thirteen calves, “short-necked, golden balls of wool,” O’Brien embarked on a journey that returned buffalo to his land for the first time in more than a century and a half. Buffalo for the Broken Heart is at once a tender account of the buffaloes’ first seasons on the ranch and an engaging lesson in wildlife ecology. Whether he’s describing the grazing pattern of the buffalo, the thrill of watching a falcon home in on its prey, or the comical spectacle of a buffalo bull wallowing in the mud, O’Brien combines a novelist’s eye for detail with a naturalist’s understanding to create an enriching, entertaining narrative.
