From New York Times bestselling author Janet Dailey
comes a captivating story of a man who's given up, a woman
who won't let go, and a race to find a treasure that could
bring them wealth and so much more...
Something More
Life in Glory, Wyoming, population fifty-one, isn't exactly
exciting. The dusty old town isn't even on the map. And for
rancher Luke McCallister, that's just fine. Broken by
tragedy, the stoic cowboy spends his time at his Ten Bar
Ranch or down at Ima Jane's Rimrock Bar, trying to avoid the
gossip being served along with the food and drink. But the
everyday quiet of his life is shattered when he finds a
human skull--and possibly the key to Glory's oldest mystery.
It was one hundred years ago that a band of outlaws were
said to have buried their gold in Glory. The one surviving
bandit took the secret of the treasure's hiding place with
him to the gallows. Angie Sommers knows the story cold: that
man was her great-great-grandfather. She's come to Glory to
see if the old legend of the gold is true, and she wants
Luke to help her find it. She even has incentive: a possible
clue written by the dead man himself.
Luke has no interest in chasing after pipe dreams. He's seen
the damage too much hope can bring. Still, he can't deny
that Angie makes him feel things he hasn't allowed himself
to feel in years. Something about her sweet, trusting
nature, her honest eyes, and unshakable belief makes him
feel alive again--and that could be dangerous. For someone
else is determined to stop Angie, someone who would do
anything for the outlaws'gold. Now, bound by the thinnest of
ties and shadowed by danger, Luke and Angie set off in
search of a mystery as romantic as the west itself on a
journey of faith that will take them into Wyoming's rugged,
treacherous terrain and even deeper into the heart's tender
graces...
