Cora Harrison would like nothing more than to find a godly husband and enjoy the blessing of being a wife and mother. That's why she's happy when the new young doctor sets about to ask if he may escort her to dinner. However, the doctor is right in the middle of his request when who on earth should walk in but Kin Davis, Wyldhaven's rogue traveler. The man she's fought to forget with every ounce of her being for the past two years. Of course Kin would turn up with that annoying smirk right at this moment! The man is as incorrigible as a rock! So why does the strength in her legs instantly fail and her heart take to flight? When Kin Davis walks into Dixie's Boardinghouse and finds the town's new doctor fawning all over Cora, irritation surges. Despite that, Kin holds no hope of attaining 'Missionary' Cora's interest. She'd never fall for a scoundrel like him. Besides, he has to look after Isaiah Coleman, the kid he rescued from the streets of Seattle. And there's his law practice to set up. He doesn't have time to court a woman, no matter how pretty she might be or how pleasurable her company. That's what he keeps telling himself until Isaiah's enemies follow him to town and Cora is put in the crosshairs. It's then that Kin realizes Cora means more to him than life itself. Take the next stagecoach to Wyldhaven, where the coffee's perked hot, the sheriff likes his apple pie fresh from the oven, and adventure invariably waits just around the next river bend.
