Lela had no illusions about her position in her uncle's household now that she had celebrated her 20th birthday with no acknowledgment of the event. She was a servant to her aunt and uncle and her two entitled cousins and that was all she would ever be. Orphaned and mistreated, she would start to make decisions for her own future. Alone. Harley and Joshua Judd had done well for themselves since hitting that vein of good fortune as young men after moving out West after losing their parents. Joshua had almost succumbed to the temptations, but he seemed to be on the right track now. If only Harley, as the big brother, could tempt him into the banking business and away from the dangers of the mines. Maybe Joshua's correspondence with the mail-order bride back East was a sign that he was ready to become the responsible man Harley knew was lingering below the surface. Was Virginia City, Montana the right place for a naive young city woman, alone in the world and without guidance? What was in the cards for the Judd brothers, one a successful banker and the other a miner with the demons of his past lurking at every turn?
