A steamy western historical romance from the voice of New York Times bestselling author Lori Handeland.

Is love better the second time around?

With a bad marriage behind her and the note on her horse ranch coming due, former mail-order bride and recent widow Katherine Logan has neither the time nor the inclination to save a low-down bandit. Then the sight of wickedly tempting Jake Banner changes her mind. Taking advantage of a local custom, she saves him from the hangman's noose, but Jake's secrets run deeper than the crime that put him there.

Though the War Between the States is over, tensions still run high. Former Confederate soldiers have banded together to form outlaw gangs—robbing trains, stages and banks. Second Chance, Missouri stands in the center of the storm. Jake and Katherine find themselves drawn into the wildness of the west and the temptation of each other. However, dark secrets have a way of coming to light.

Can they save the ranch, round up the bad guys and still fall in love?

Fans of Cynthia Roberts, Isabel Keats and Kristy McCaffrey will love this gritty, steamy, emotional tale of the Old West.
