1873 Honor & Grit

By Ellen Crume

A threat against the Governor. A housemaid with secrets of her own. A Texas Ranger determined to stop a killer before history is rewritten.

When Texas Ranger Samuel Hamilton is assigned to quietly protect Governor Edmund Davis during the turbulent days of Reconstruction, he expects politics, long hours, and little sleep. He does not expect Coral Rosen.

Coral has spent years keeping her head down inside the Governor's Mansion, believing survival depends on remaining unnoticed. But someone is watching the house, and a growing conspiracy reaches far beyond Austin. As danger spreads across railroads, riverboats, plantations, and the nation's capital, Samuel and Coral find themselves hunted by men willing to kill for power.

With loyal friends at their side, a relentless enemy closing in, and time running short, Samuel and Coral must decide how much they are willing to risk for justice... and for each other.

1873 Honor & Grit is a sweeping historical romantic suspense filled with mystery, political intrigue, unforgettable characters, slow-burn romance, and the spirit of the American frontier.
