Damaged almost beyond hope, a young woman is offered safety-by the man who killed her brother. 1880s Arizona Territory: Shunned by the village for her outlaw brother's deeds, Jesse is not sorry to hear he's been killed while robbing a bank. Strangely enough it's Adam Donovan, the man who shot him, who brings her the news. Even more strange is this newcomer's offer to help put her ranch back on solid footing. Traumatized by years of abuse, Jesse doubts she can trust any man-especially this Irish immigrant with his volatile temper and gunfighter's reputation. But a profound love for her canyon home outweighs her trepidation, and she accepts his assistance. As they work together to improve her ranch, Jesse comes to believe that Adam's true nature is far removed from his notoriety. She feels the first stirrings of love-an emotion she's never known before. But her nascent dreams of romance turn to nightmares when she discovers that not all of her brother's evil deeds died with him. Can Jesse trust her heart and reveal the extent of her brother's treachery to Adam? Can they build a future encumbered by the past, or will her confession destroy her one chance for happiness? Deceptively simple and poetic, this heartfelt western historical romance will tug at your emotions, make you laugh, cry, and even get a little angry, as it handles difficult topics with a sensitive touch.
