SynopsisIn a novel of high-riding adventure and long-simmering desire, New York Times bestselling author Joan Johnston brings to life a sweeping story of lost love, shattering secrets, and a passion waiting to be reclaimed. More than twenty years ago, young Verity Talbot made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the man she loved: She married the brute who'd threatened to kill him. Verity, now the Countess of Rushland, also kept a shattering secret, allowing the son of Miles Broderick, Viscount Linden, to be raised as another man's heir. Now a widow, Verity and her grown son, Rand, arrive in the Wyoming Territory to begin a new life--only to face a reckoning. When Miles makes the stunning realization that he's just saved the life of the only woman he has ever loved--who chose to marry another man--he is torn between anger at her betrayal and uncontrolled desire. Miles is shattered and rages against fate when he learns the truth about the son he never knew existed--until Rand is captured by a Sioux warrior. Suddenly, Miles realizes that the only future worth living is one with Verity--as they race to rescue their son and fulfill their dreams., In a novel of high-riding adventure and long-simmering desire, New York Times bestselling author Joan Johnston brings to life a sweeping story of lost love, shattering secrets, and a passion waiting to be reclaimed.
