A lonely widow… a lovestruck cowboy… and a second chance in a Western small town

Amelia Larimer loses all hope when her father is murdered after losing his fortune in the Panic of 1893. How will she support herself and her young daughter, Becca? Salvation comes in the form of a Western knight-errant proposing marriage. She agrees, although uncertain of whether she can ever love again.

Three years ago, Rafe Falcon promised Amelia’s dying husband that he would take care of her. Rafe has secretly loved her for years--but kept his feelings to himself, giving her time to grieve. Besides, the St. Louis banking heiress seemed far above the touch of a Montana rancher. When he learns of Amelia’s tragically changed circumstances, he rides the rails to the rescue, determined to marry her and bring her and Becca to the safety of his home outside Sweetwater Springs.

Adjusting to a new life together in the west isn’t easy for either of them, and danger lurks when her father’s murderer follows them to Montana and kidnaps Amelia. Once again, Rafe must ride to her rescue, praying he will be able to keep his promise to protect the woman he loves.
