For years, Maisy McCoubrie, a woman haunted by a past filled with betrayal and tragedy, manages to stay out of the clutches of one Gold Kingsley who seduced her when she was a mere girl. But now, as she navigates the saloon world as a Faro dealer, hiding her illegitimate son from the world, and his father, she spots Kingsley on the street and jumps on a departing train. Tasked by Kingsley with finding Maisy, The Preacher, a man with a shadowy history and a notorious repute, harbors doubts about the man's plans for Maisy. When he stumbles upon a seemingly lifeless saloon girl, he learns Kingsley's cruelty knows no bounds. But again, Kingsley turns the tables on his enemy and frames The Preacher for the girl's murder. As danger looms, The Preacher and Maisy are drawn together by a force more potent than revenge-love. Their shared quest to bring Kingsley to justice unites their hearts in a story of unlikely alliances turned passionate devotion. But Kingsley will stop at nothing to see his malevolent designs come to fruition. When Maisy's son becomes an unwitting pawn in the final confrontation, the lines between right and wrong blur. With Maisy and The Preacher working together, justice will be served, even if it means taking matters into their own hands. In this Western historical romance, love blossoms amidst the dust and danger of the Old West, and justice is found in the most unexpected places. Join Maisy and The Preacher as they navigate a treacherous path toward happiness, leaving a trail of redemption and reckoning in their wake.
