Life has never been easy for Wyatt Porter. But when he becomes a Pony Express rider, things begin to look up despite the dangers of the trail. He even finds love. Yet obstacles stand in the way of marriage, and as the nation descends deeper into war, the conflict grows more volatile with each passing day. Clara Downing ran away from home three years ago--a decision she now regrets. When a gambler rescues her and brings her to another town, she begins to build a better life ... or so she believes. But when the man she hopes to marry insists on traveling to Boston to settle unfinished business before the wedding, Clara is filled with dread. With war raging and winter fast approaching, the journey could prove more dangerous than either of them expects.
