All traveling nurse Libby wanted was a quiet Christmas to grieve losing her younger brother. She's on a westbound train heading home when she and a friend find themselves in the middle of a hijacking and then taken hostage by a gang of outlaws.

Walt White is a U.S. Marshal who has been chasing down the Seymour gang for years. But he's kidnapped along with two innocent women, he must figure out how to keep them alive—and it doesn't help that he's completely distracted by the beautiful Libby. He'll need his wits about him if he hopes to save them.

As they work to engineer an escape, Walt realizes that Libby is resilient and cunning—and vulnerable, though she hides it well. He must give his all to protect her heart and bring her home in time for Christmas.
