Series background & context
The Raines of Wind Canyon books are Kat Martin's bridge between old-school romance and full-on romantic suspense. The series follows the Raines men, once dismissed as the no-account boys from Wind Canyon, Wyoming, who grow into ranchers, businessmen, investigators, and protectors. It begins with Against the Wind and runs through Against the Mark.
Wind Canyon matters. Wyoming ranchland, small-town history, and long memory give the books their texture, while every installment throws a different woman into serious danger. Some stories hinge on stalking, missing people, or arson. Others turn on business corruption, kidnapping, or secrets that should have stayed buried. The romance is important, but so is the threat pressing in from the outside.
These books move fast.
What links them is family loyalty. The Raines men know one another's weaknesses, argue like brothers, and show up when it counts. If you want cowboy energy with sharper suspense stakes, this is one of Martin's most reader-friendly places to start.
