Rachel Sutter’s world is turned upside down when Caleb Beckett rides into Salvation Falls. He brings news of a poker game gone disastrously wrong—not only has her wastrel husband been killed, he’s also gambled away Rachel’s home! 

Suddenly, Rachel is left with nothing but an unpaid debt, and Caleb is holding all the cards—not to mention the deed to her land! There’s something about the enigmatic drifter that she is instinctively drawn to, but how can she begin to trust him when so much of his past is shrouded in mystery?

1. Prove her father, who died in jail, was innocent and unmask the real culprits. 

2. Avoid Hunter Donovan, who broke her heart and ran her out of town. 

But to achieve her first objective, Meredith will have to sacrifice her second. Because Hunter is the town’s sheriff, and that means there’s no escaping him—or the way he makes her feel!
