Lacey Everhart has carved out a tough existence in the wilds of 1880s Wyoming, working hard to build a secure life for herself and her younger brother, Luke. She will stop at nothing to protect what's hers and keep them safe. Even if it means keeping a secret that could destroy their lives. Marshal Dylan J. Kane considers everything as black and white, right or wrong--until he lays eyes on Lacey. Can she convince him that sometimes a gray area exists, where a woman's gotta do what a woman's gotta do? Can he really love a woman who seems to be plain lawless...or will his love for her go beyond what's right?
