"Dorothy Garlock is one of those gifted storytellers who is able to blend beautiful love stories while at the same time recreating the down-to-earth reality of our pioneering ancestors." — Affaire de Coeur

Fiery-haired Vanessa Cavanaugh is determined to cross the prairies, ford the mighty rivers, and climb the Rockies to reach Colorado. Her hands hold the reins of the mule team with wiry strength, but her resolve weakens when a tall stranger, lean of body, wide of shoulder, and wild as the western wind, takes her in his arms. Vanessa knows Kain DeBolt's gun and fist can protect her from the outlaws waiting on the untamed frontier . . .but his secrets could prove dangerous to a woman in love. Will surrender to this restless roamer bring her happiness—or forever break her heart?
