The Sheriff - Tales from Texas, #3 - E-book - ePub

Roy wouldn't give up being the sheriff of the small town of Burnham, Texas for anything. Maybe the circumstances surrounding his being there weren't the best, but all's well that ends well. He couldn't ask for better friends than Lee and Marshall. And the people of Burnham have been nothing less than welcoming, offering him the position of sheriff after he decided to stop being a PI and settle there with his friends.
Even so, sometimes he wishes he could have what Lee and Marshall have. Does such love even exist for him? Right now that just doesn't seem to be in the cards, as none of his dates ever seem to lead in the right direction. Good thing he has his job to hold onto. Dustin Johnson hasn't had an easy life, bounced around between family members since he was young. He first met Marshall in a bar in Tucker Falls, coming to his rescue when he was almost assaulted by a disgruntled would-be suitor, and became infatuated with him.
Not taking no for an answer, he kept pursuing him, colliding with Marshall's partner Lee on more than one occasion. But that's all done now. He realizes he's made some mistakes, and he wants to turn over a new life. Beginning with a more permanent living arrangement with his cousin Denver and a job at the computer store. What he really would like to do is work in law enforcement. But Sheriff Roy Landry barely gives him the time of day.
What's a guy to do?Just when Dustin thinks he's found the man of his dreams, he learns just how bad a judge of character he really is. He runs to Roy for help, and Roy promises to help him do what is right. Will Roy become the white knight Dustin needs, assuming he doesn't get killed in the process?Sometimes love is where you least expect to find it. But if you keep an open mind and heart, you might just find what you're looking for.
