Summary
Harrison
Once his fortune in silver mining is secured, Harrison Carter finally sends back home for his fiancée. It’s been four years since he’s seen Jenny.
But it’s Retta Pearce, Jenny’s sister, who arrives by stagecoach with young daughter Adeline in tow. When this lovely, soiled dove brings devastating news and a written plea from Jenny to marry and care for Retta and little Addie, what’s a good man to do?
Retta
Fulfilling her dying sister’s request, Retta travels across dangerous territory to marry a man she barely remembers. But the hard miner who meets her at the stagecoach surely isn’t the same one her sister claimed was kind and honorable, a gentleman who’ll embrace her and her daughter as if they were his own. Has she made a mistake she’ll pay for the rest of her life?
Two people
Thrown together in shared sorrow, Harrison and Retta struggle to forge a life in the brand-new state of late 19th-century Colorado.

I loved the narration of Alan Taylor
Harrison has waited four years eagerly for Jenny and their future life together. But when Retta, Jenny’s sister arrives with her young daughter Addie instead, he is shocked and angry by Jenny’s request.
I enjoyed how Harrison’s emotions changed as the story unfolds with his relationship with Jenny and her daughter Addie growing. His difficulty letting Jenny go. Oh and saying her name in certain situation, does not help the newly married couple, find peace and a new start.
With a great villain and characters, action, heat and steam. Perfect.
