Emmett Martin is a man of few words, but he is also a man with a lot of debt. Coming from a broken home and a family that couldn’t provide anything but trouble, Emmett has spent his whole life trying to catch a break. He’s desperate to pay his dues and finally start his life with a clean slate, and in order to achieve that, he is willing to do anything. Little did he know this would mean he’d have to escort a spunky and spoiled girl to an arranged marriage and make sure that she’ll go through with it… otherwise her father will have him arrested for theft.

When things start getting messy, will Emmett choose to follow his plan or his moral compass?

Cecily Olson has everything she could ever need or possibly want in life until… she doesn’t. When her father informs her she’s moving to a place far away to marry a man she’s never met, her world turns upside down. She has rarely left the family ranch, and facing the unknown scares her more than she could ever dare to admit. When she’s given the choice to marry or make it on her own, she knows she doesn’t really have any choice at all. To make things worse, Cecily will find true love in the eyes of the man who’s escorting her to the demise of her dreams.

Will Cecily accept her fate, or will she realize that it’s only herself she needs to depend on?

Emmett and Cecily were forced to embark together on a journey that would change their lives forever. With every turn they will meet a new hurdle, and just when they realize they’re deep into the uncharted wilderness, they will face a new challenge, the likes of which they never imagined. Will the growing feelings between them help them withstand the dangers in the wild, unmerciful West, or will they be the reason why everything will be in jeopardy?

A pulse-pounding drama, which will make you turn the pages with bated breath until the very last word. A must-read for fans of Western action and romance.
