The sensational second novel in Joan Johnston's Western historical
romance series set in the world of Bitter Creek.
CAN SECRETS AND SECOND CHOICES EVER LEAD TO LOVE?
After three months in a mail-order marriage, Hannah Wentworth McMurtry
is a widow--pregnant, alone, and near death in the Wyoming wilderness.
Though she is saved by a man with a face cut from stone, she still
grieves the husband who died on their journey west. Hannah needs a
husband, but does she dare marry another stranger?
Flint Creed has also lost someone he loved--when the woman he hoped to
marry chose his younger brother instead. Now he must find a ranch wife
of his own. But every female in the remote Wyoming Territory is too old,
too young, or already married . . . until he discovers Hannah on the
prairie. Flint doesn't pretend to love her, but he doesn't tell her he
loves another woman, either. Hannah doesn't pretend to love him, but she
doesn't tell him about the child she carries. Though danger surrounds
them on the Wyoming frontier, the greatest threats of all are the
secrets within--revelations that could destroy the new life Hannah and
Flint have begun to cherish.
