In this stirring novel of the Old West from New York Times bestselling author Catherine Anderson, a desperate woman’s impulsive ruse brings a rough-looking stranger into her life...
To support her orphaned niece, impoverished Brianna O’Keefe accepts work with a Colorado rancher. To guard herself from unwanted attention, she resorts to a harmless little lie: that she’s married to a Denver gold miner named David Paxton. When her boss forces her to write her “husband,” hoping he’ll take Brianna off his hands, she can only pray that no real David Paxton exists who can expose her.
When Colorado marshal David Paxton gets a letter from a stranger claiming to be his wife, and pleading with him to come for her and his “daughter,” he dutifully sets out to find this woman and the child he may have sired. What stuns Brianna is that David is convinced the young girl could, in fact, be his. As David and Brianna’s wary attraction blossoms into a deeper desire, David warms to the idea of a ready-made family. But can his dream survive Brianna’s lingering distrust...and his own heart-held secrets?

      Startled out of his relatively peaceful life as the sheriff of tiny No Name, CO, when letters arrive suggesting he might have a wife and a child--and he has no recollection of either--David Paxton heads for Glory Ridge to check things out. He finds an adorable six-year-old who is definitely a Paxton, a fiercely protective Irish beauty who claims she's married to a different David Paxton, and a dilemma he's hard-pressed to solve. A forced marriage and a little girl's impulsive announcement take the decision out of the couple's hands and set them on a rocky, lie-strewn path to an unexpected relationship. VERDICT Gentle humor, flirtatious banter, beautifully drawn characters, and a worthy plot result in a poignant, family-centered story that draws readers in and makes them want to stay. Anderson (Here To Stay) lives in rural Oregon.
