She'd changed miraculously . . .

A bullet wound had put Laura Hudson into a coma. Awakening with amnesia, she was told that the police still didn't know who'd shot her or why. Even worse, she was headed toward a slow recovery on a cattle ranch - with a husband and daughter who apparently hated her.

To Ryder Hudson, Laura seemed like a brand-new woman. Even little Abby warmed to her. But Ryder had to stay on guard. Because he was falling in love with his wife again - even as he began to suspect that she wasn't Laura at all . . . but a potentially dangerous stranger!

Excerpt

    A real man didn't discuss the particulars of his marriage bed.

    Except this once, Ryder thought. "Have you ever been with a woman..." Ryder said, glancing at Tom. "And she loves you so much you want to crawl right inside her skin until the rest of the world drops off into space?" Ryder thumped his chest. "It's a fire right in here, stoking embers in your blood. You skin's too small to hold all the feelings in. Anything is possible and everything is right. And the only word in your head is her name..."
    Tom slowly shook his head. "I guess, Ryder."
    "Well," Ryder continued, "that's how Laura makes me feel, and that's how come I know she's not Laura."
    "Then who is she?"
    Ryder glanced toward the house, envisioning the beautiful woman still sleeping in his bed. "I don't know," he whispered softly. "I just don't know."
