Roaming Wild

In this fifth installment of the action-packed Steele Ridge: The Steeles romantic suspense series, USA Today bestselling author Tracey Devlyn sends a traveling nurse on the road with her mobile clinic-only to discover her brother's best friend has inserted himself into her route for reasons he won't explain. As secrets unravel and bodies begin to surface along their path, they'll have to outrun a ruthless predator before danger catches them...and before trust becomes the one thing they can't afford to lose.

She's loved him forever . . .
Traveling nurse Evie Steele has built her life around helping the people nobody else can reach-remote mountain towns, forgotten hollows, and families who can't afford to get sick. The last thing she expects to find aboard the RV that houses her Med Mobile clinic is her brother's best friend...and the one man she's loved for far too long.

. . . but now his secrets could destroy them both.
Special Agent Deke Conrad has no business being there. Evie has always been off-limits-too young, too close to his best friend, and too dangerous to want. But what should've been a routine mission has turned into a tour of temptation and survival. Deke needs the Med Mobile as cover while he tracks a merciless wildlife trafficker-a predator who doesn't just smuggle and sell...he kills to protect his operation. Keeping Evie in the dark is the only way to protect her. Until the secrets between them become as explosive as the threat outside the RV door.

When the investigation takes a brutal turn and a string of dead bodies appears along their route, Evie realizes Deke isn't the man she thought she knew-and trusting him may be the most dangerous choice she's ever made. But walking away from him might be worse.

Now Evie is in the enemy's crosshairs, and Deke must unleash every weapon in his arsenal to save her-including the one he's spent years locking down: his heart. Because if he's too late, Evie won't just lose her dream. She'll lose her life.
