Description

Samantha Hayes never intended to eavesdrop—but what she overhears is chilling: her fiancé's plan to marry her for her fortune and then end her life. Fleeing the only home she's ever known, Samantha boards a westbound train, desperate to disappear before her fiancé can carry out his plot.

Pinkerton Agent Kent Butler is hired by Samantha's aunt to track her down. He follows Samantha to Council Bluffs and boards the Union Pacific, only to discover that the woman who hired him has her own secrets. As Kent and Samantha grow closer on their journey, danger follows in the form of Samantha's vengeful ex-fiancé and his henchmen. Kent is determined to protect Samantha, but can he keep her safe when the past refuses to let go?

As the train speeds toward North Platte, Samantha and Kent must trust each other if they hope to escape the trap closing around them—and find a love neither expected.

Perfect for readers who love sweet historical western romance, romantic suspense, Pinkerton agent heroes, runaway bride stories, train-set adventures, inspirational romance, and tales of courage and redemption.
