Broken Outlaw by Dakota James

The quiet cowboy is the most dangerous one.

Mason Rivera doesn’t talk much.
He doesn’t need to. The former sniper sees everything—including the fear Lily Carter, the new town veterinarian, tries so hard to hide.
He knows the truth: Someone is after her.
Mason has spent years trying to bury the violence inside him. But protecting Lily awakens something dark—something lethal.
Because men like the one hunting Lily don’t stop, and Mason Rivera has never had a problem pulling the trigger—especially when the woman he wants is in danger.

BROKEN OUTLAW is a dark cowboy romance featuring a quiet protector, forced proximity, and a hero who will cross any line to keep her safe.
