Jack Sterling isn't having a good day. A swindler has stolen family property from his elderly grandmother and Jack has taken the law into his own hands to steal it back. Only the stagecoach he intends to rob is under fire, forcing him to rescue the very occupants he'd planned to rob. One glance at the beautiful woman inside nearly has him forgetting why he's there in the first place. Kristen March has fled Boston to avoid an arranged marriage between moneyed families. She'd rather take her chances on the untamed frontier than marry a man she doesn't love. But the Wild West proves to be more adventure than she anticipates when her stagecoach comes under attack. Not only does handsome Jack come to her rescue, he makes it clear he plans to court her. But both are keeping secrets that could tear them apart for good.
