The New York Times bestselling author of The Man from Stone Creek returns to the Arizona territory with the sweeping tale of two people running from dangerous secrets—and the love that can set them free.

The past has a way of catching up with folks in Stone Creek, Arizona. So
schoolmarm Lark Morgan and Marshal Rowdy Rhodes are determined to hide their
secrets—and deny their instant attraction. That shouldn’t be too hard, since
each suspects the other of living a lie. Her too-fancy clothes and big-city ways
inspire gossip all over town; his blond good looks and impudent grin belong to a
man sporting a gunfighter’s coat.

But Rowdy and Lark have one truth in common: the very real dangers they face.
Like the gang of robbers wreaking havoc on the railroad heading toward Stone
Creek—the men Ranger Sam O’Ballivan expects Rowdy to nab. And as past and
current troubles collide, Rowdy and Lark must surrender their stubborn pride to
the greatest power of all—an undying love.
