Giving up on sleep, Alex switched on the bedside lamp and sat up. He reached for Amigo’s Justice, the second book in the Johnny Amigo trilogy. The first in the series had been checked out, so he had yet to read it. If Alex couldn’t rescue the damsel in distress on the radio, he guessed he might as well see how Johnny fared with his damsel.

She found love in the arms of the enemy!

 

Holly Maxwell despised the Yankees that had ravaged her home, leaving her beloved Magnolia Hall in charred ruins. Then, in the arms of a passionate stranger, Holly dared to think she might have found her true love—till she discovers that Scott Coulter is actually the new Commander of the occupying Federal Army.
 

Hurt, humiliated, and reeling from the betrayal, Holly is at the mercy of her ruthless stepbrother, who is more than happy to use her to further his evil schemes. But Holly is determined to persevere—she’ll stop at nothing to regain her family land…and reclaim her heart from the man who she can never forget.
