In this stirring novel of the Old West from New York Times bestselling author Catherine Anderson, a desperate womans impulsive ruse brings a rough-looking stranger into her life... To support her orphaned niece, impoverished Brianna OKeefe accepts work with a Colorado rancher. To guard herself from unwanted attention, she resorts to a harmless little lie: that shes married to a Denver gold miner named David Paxton. When her boss forces her to write her husband, hoping hell take Brianna off his hands, she can only pray that no real David Paxton exists who can expose her. When Colorado marshal David Paxton gets a letter from a stranger claiming to be his wife, and pleading with him to come for her and his daughter, he dutifully sets out to find this woman and the child he may have sired. What stuns Brianna is that David is convinced the young girl could, in fact, be his. As David and Briannas wary attraction blossoms into a deeper desire, David warms to the idea of a ready-made family. But can his dream survive Briannas lingering distrust...and his own heart-held secrets? From the Paperback edition.
