He was called the widowmaker

Another one of those really great authors who I come back to time after time is Johanna Lindsey. Her novel Angel is about a gunslinger with a softer side. While she does not have a website, I have found a bit of a biography on her author page through her publisher: http://www.harpercollins.com/authors/15195/Johanna_Lindsey/index.aspx And here is a quick synopsis about a gunslinger named Angel.

Hoping to cool off a twenty”“five”“year”“old feud between two neighbouring families, Cassie Stuart only succeeds in pouring kerosene on the flames. Both sides have warned her to get out of Texas pronto. . .or they will burn her father”s ranch to the ground. What Cassie needs is a peacemaker but she ends up with a widow”“maker instead.

He is called Angel, a ruggedly handsome hired gun with eyes as black as sin. Unwanted and unwelcomed by his ungrateful employer, he would just as soon leave Cassie to fend for herself. But a stubborn sense of duty, and a desire to taste the sweetness of her kiss steals Angel”s resolve to make Cassie want him, come hell or high water. . .and for more than his gun alone.
