Sheriff Grant Jackson fell in love with Lydia Somerset the moment he saw her, and though she was unaccustomed to the ways of the west and surprised by his readiness to take her firmly in hand, she seemed to love him too. That only made it harder to bear when a misunderstanding prompted her to board a train headed back east without even saying goodbye. Lydia had high hopes when she traveled west as a mail order bride for the sheriff of Silver Run, Arizona, but then everything went wrong and she ended up back in Boston, on her own and pregnant with his child. Heartbroken and desperate, she let her cruel, conniving mother take control of her life, even though it meant giving up her child. When Grant receives a cryptic letter informing him that his wife is in urgent need of his help, he takes the next train to Boston, determined to find out the truth behind her abrupt departure. Upon his arrival, however, he quickly discovers that there is much more to the situation than he realized. Can he find a way to reclaim not only his wayward wife but his infant son as well?
