Summary

Eric Chistiansen—not his real name—has been looking for sanctuary for a long time. He finally thinks he's found a crime syndicate that might watch his back while he tries to disentangle himself from his highly lucrative, highly illegal job as a killer for hire, albeit a picky one. He's ready to hang up his guns for some peace.
Brady Carnegie came to this little slice of desert between Meth and Hell because he wanted to help bring crime down. He's deeply disappointed to find that his new boss and others in the department are crooked. But Brady has stumbled onto the key to ending the corruption plaguing the stretch of desert he's coming to love, if he can stay alive long enough to use it.
Brady finds unexpected allies in the same unlikely group that's sheltering Eric and starts to realize that the good guys may not wear badges, and the bad guys who do have enough to lose to put his new friends at risk too. Brady's always been a solid law and order man, but he finds himself shifting allegiances like the desert sands shift beneath his feet.
As Eric grows more protective of the earnest deputy, it becomes clear that a true warrior never gets to hang up his guns, and redemption doesn't come without a price. Can a hidden nest of vigilantes bring justice to their barren land while the cop and the hitman find comfort in each other's arms? Or is the cost of redemption only measured in blood?

    Poppy McCoy is unconventional. A naturopathic doctor with a free spirit, she only relies on herself and has returned to Meadowbrook to care for her grandmother and open a holistic clinic. But her first day ends with a near collision with the town's stuck-up physician, and sparks fly . . . not the good kind. 
     
    Willow thinks Poppy's remedies are reckless. Poppy thinks Willow's closed mind is the real problem. But a troubled younger sister, a shared patient crisis, and one too many late-night house calls keep throwing them together.
