Bound by birth to the world of prostitution, Rebecca Rose is
born in a pine shack, a crib, at the end of the line in
Nevada City, Colorado Territory, in the mining town's red
light district. Bound by birth to uphold his family's good
name and sizable fortune, Morgan Larkspur is born in Denver
City with a silver spoon in his mouth and iron spurs on his
heels. Their lives intersect in 1880 Denver when Becca is
seventeen and Morgan, twenty-five. Immediately attracted,
they've no idea of the high price they'll pay for this---the
danger awaiting. A child of four when ""hell came calling,"" Becca determines
to grow up and seek her own justice for what her mother
suffered. The law won't help a whore. She'd do what she
needed to stay alive, knowing she'd never live happily ever
after as in fairy tales; yet, never ashamed of what she was.
When Morgan steps inside room number eight at the Palace
behind the beautiful, untried prostitute, looking for
nothing more than a pleasant distraction, he unwittingly
sets in motion a series of events neither could have
imagined in their worst nightmare. The Parlor House Daughter is a suspenseful, romantic page-
turner, set against the backdrop of hustle and bustle, gold
and silver-rich Denver, where fortunes change hands often
and misfortune befalls many, where the society elite hold
themselves apart from the lower classes, and where the fine
line between truth and lies easily covers over. When Becca and Morgan discover they have nothing to hold
onto but the love they once shared, will it be enough? Will
it be enough to withstand the impossible choice forced upon
them? A choice no one should ever have to make.
