Love Won't Run

Adelaide Kemp-Houghton witnessed the murder of her husband one dark night, and in order to save herself, she abandons everything she's ever known. Her refuge is found in Oklahoma Territory. There, she begins a new life under an assumed name: Della Brown.

Lo Bonham's world turned upside down the day his sister left her young daughter. Bringing up his niece isn't a challenge until she turns into a rebellious teenager. His house is in discord and if he doesn't find a solution, he may lose his mind. When he meets Della, the problem seems likely to resolve in a matter of weeks as his niece takes to her private, mousy companion. Lo can't help being drawn to Della either, even if she is hiding a deep secret.

Della shouldn't let Lo and his niece make her feel so at home, but she's fast falling for the man known as the local Lothario. When Della's past is exposed, the two men trying to track her down arrive in town. One wants to kill her, one wants her for personal gain. Even with Lo backing her, will Della ever be safe again?
