Only the fearless face danger when it strikes. Taking flight from their quiet Pennsylvania town seems like the only way for Tori Boyd to protect her dearest cousin's virtue. And the success of their escape may now depend on the man she's been writing letters to for over a year now in the vast wilds of the Wyoming Territory. Ezra Reid has finally stepped out from under the shadow of his older brother and sister, now having full responsibility to man the Rocky Ridge Stage Stop through the winter. The success or failure of the stage and telegraph contracts falls squarely on his shoulders, and he's entirely focused on the work-at least until his mysterious correspondence partner shows up on his doorstep. As Ezra takes on the search for a proper situation for Tori and her cousin, he finds no good options for the ladies. Especially since Tori won't even discuss the one option that might succeed-marriage. When the danger chasing the women takes on a form more dangerous than Ezra anticipated, how far will he have to go to keep Tori and her cousin safe? It'll take a lot more than luck to ensure his heart is the only casualty. From a USA Today bestselling author comes another thrilling tale of love and courage on the western frontier.
