Shelter for Allegra by Emily Gray

Detective Allegra Morelli bleeds blue. The only woman in a family of law enforcement, love and a relationship are the last things on her mind, especially when she has to prove herself against a hostility-driven police sergeant. Besides, the only male attention she’s looking for is from her loyal, retired K-9 German Shepherd, Toby. That is until she meets a protective stranger who awakens all of her dormant desires and makes her believe she can have the kind of love she never thought she’d find.
Texas Ranger Liam O’Neal is investigating the disappearance of his confidential informant and a dangerous new drug making its way through the Lone Star state. He and a fellow Ranger soon discover the cases are far more complicated than anyone thought and deadly, too. As bodies start piling up, Liam works every lead with the help of the most captivating detective he’s ever met. He also can’t keep from hoping she’ll allow the sparks building between them to turn into something more.
But when an unexpected threat against Allegra appears, both realize their time together might be cut short. Will Liam be able to save her before it’s too late?
