He crossed an ocean to buy a bride. He'll have to cross a continent to win her.
A ruined lord, a runaway heiress, and a desperate chase across the American West.
Lord William George, a titled English aristocrat with nothing but a crumbling estate and his family's honor to his name, has one last chance to avoid ruin: an arranged marriage to a wealthy American heiress. But when he arrives in Boston to claim his bride, he finds an empty parlor and a defiant letter. Claudia Ashworth has no intention of being traded like property. She's fled west, seeking the freedom she's only read about in dime novels.
With creditors closing in, Lord George has no choice. Accompanied by his unflappable valet, a veteran of the Zulu Wars, he sets off in pursuit. The chase across the gritty, unforgiving landscape of the Old West transforms the polished nobleman into something else entirely. To survive, he must become a fighter, a tracker, and even a bounty hunter-a man his ancestors would no longer recognize.
When their paths finally collide in the brutal heat of New Mexico Territory, it's not with a wedding, but with a tense negotiation. Stalked by outlaws and surrounded by danger, they strike an unlikely bargain: a three-month truce. Together, they will face the perils of the frontier, forcing a proud lord and a headstrong runaway to see the truth of who they are-and who they could be to each other.
