Description

Unforeseen complications?

Damn right, when a runaway train of tragedy barrels into 1885 Colorado Springs, where only a slow-talking sheriff and a reckless girl can outwit her powerful family. Tragedy sent Sherman Elias McHuay west twelve years ago. But his troubled past barrels in like a runaway train or—more appropriately—smacks him over the head in the form of a violet-eyed miss without a lick of common sense to her name. If one could actually determine her name.

Amaris Johnston's carefully laid plans to head west as a mail order bride ratchet up when an announcement for her impending nuptials to the son of a prominent US Senator is set to go public. Not that she'd agreed to marry in the first place. A forced engagement and her family—a conniving slew of ambitious and power-hungry tyrants—send her running for the Colorado hills. Can a slow-talking sheriff and a headstrong girl bent on recklessness outwit her powerful family?
