Book description
Evangeline Keating came west because she had to: after her husband's
passing, she needed to build a new life for her young daughter, and
marrying a stranger from Montana Territory was her best chance. After a
difficult winter journey, she arrives at an isolated outpost called
Springwater Station. But the handsome man who's come for her is not her
husband-to-be, and Evangeline soon finds herself thrust into a most
inconvenient -- and highly improper -- arrangement.
Scully Wainwright never intended to be left alone with his ranching
partner's fiancée. But his partner's not due back until spring, and he
can't leave a defenseless woman and her child unguarded -- not with
wolves and Indians threatening. Biding his time with the lovely
Evangeline begins to feel dangerously close to setting up a real home.
But as a reckless passion sparks between them, Scully and Evangeline
discover a destiny -- and a passion -- as boundless as the open
frontier.
