Romance Historical
Just one touch is all it takes. . . Betrayed and abandoned by her adulterous husband, actress
Jess Sullivan has but one goal: to return home to the
happy, comfortable “good girl” life she foolishly forfeited
in the name of love. Before she can do that she’s
determined to save enough money to pay back what her
husband stole from her brother. Riddled with guilt, Jess
has no use for men or romance, especially one like Leland
Montgomery, an ultra-charming aristocrat turned playboy
gambler. Lee however, is enchanted by Jess’s beauty, and quick,
sharp wit. Assuming she follows the casual immorality of
her profession, he pursues a brief, torrid affair. Jess
though, is hardly the shallow, loose woman he expects. As
his feelings for her deepen, it becomes apparent that any
relationship with her must be respectable. But men of his
background do not marry actresses. Then Jess’s stage
manager is murdered, and she and Lee are blamed for the
crime. After narrowly escaping the clutches of corrupt
lawmen, they set out across the Colorado prairie, one step
ahead of a posse and shadowed by a passion that will no
longer be denied. . . .
