A Touch of Flame
Dr. E. Ridley Woodhouse is like no physician Ben Madison has ever met-she's a woman. As the newly elected sheriff of Frost Falls, Colorado, Ben is tasked with welcoming Ridley to the community. But while Ben might be tempted by the new doc's charms, getting the town to accept a big-city female doctor is no easy feat. To earn their trust, she'll have to prove herself, and Ben is determined to help her...even if she's the most stubborn woman he's ever met. Then Ridley is threatened, and Ben's protective instincts kick in. Ridley has come to rely on his steady presence and the delicious tension that simmers just below the surface of their easy friendship-but as much as she trusts his warnings, she's never been one to back down from a challenge, and she refuses to abandon her patient. But sticking to your guns can earn you trouble in the rough terrain of the Wild West, and danger threatens Ridley from unexpected places, forcing Ben to confront his deepest fear in order to save the woman he loves.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Named One of Library Journal's Best Books of 2018

Praise for The Cowboys of Colorado Series


“With humor, a touch of mystery and the efforts of a well-matched doctor and sheriff, Goodman draws the reader into the tangled lives of the citizens of Frost Falls, Colorado. Another winner by a master storyteller!”— Kaki Warner, RITA award-winning author of Texas Tall

"Goodman will satisfy fans of historical western romance with this sprawling, lusty recreation of life, love, and slowly uncovered secrets on a Colorado cattle ranch in the spring of 1892. Her fairy-tale Wild West also surrounds the requisite sexy courtship with plenty of rip-roaring action and appealing Colorado scenery."—Publisher's Weekly 

"A Touch of Flame is the kind of book you want to disappear into...heart-wrenching, uplifting, and humorous all at once."—All About Romance

"A Touch of Frost is the perfect western for romantics. It has grit, spunk, and a lawlessness you’ll appreciate...pure entertainment."—Romance Junkies

Praise for the Bestselling Novels of Jo Goodman

“Goodman has a well-earned reputation as one of the finest Western romance writers. Her strong plotlines, realistic, colorful backdrops, deep sensuality and engaging characters are only part of her appeal. The winning combination of toughness and tenderness are what enthrall readers.”—RT Book Reviews

“This first-rate tale easily measures up to its predecessors and will make readers eager for their next visit to Bitter Springs.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“A tender, engaging romance and a dash of risk in a totally compelling read…Gritty, realistic, and laced with humor.”—Library Journal (starred review)

“Jo Goodman is a master storyteller and one of the reasons I love historical romance so much.”—The Romance Dish

“Fans of Western romance will be thrilled with this delightful addition to Goodman’s strong list.”—Booklist
