    About this ebook

    Legends tell of her suffering and determination to escape from her eternal imprisonment. Deep in the heart of the Big Bend Country of Texas lies the mysterious Wild Rose Pass. Dalton Hernandez knows better than to cross the dangerous pass under the full moon but he has no choice. An ROTC cadet at Sul Ross State University, his girlfriend has missed her curfew by more than a few hours. If he doesn't get her in her barracks by sunrise she'll be in big trouble with her sergeant. He just couldn't allow Tasha to get in anymore trouble. Against his better judgement, Dalton decides to face the unknown and ultimately risks their entire lives with the Lady of Wild Rose Pass. Will he and Tasha ever survive their encounter with the distraught and desperate spirit?
