Callie Nolan is a half-Shoshone orphan, young, alone,
frightened, and longing to belong to someone. Rand McCullough
is the most notorious outlaw in Nevada, tough, solitary, feared,
living only for revenge, and running from more than the law. When
they meet, a love is born that transcends all obstacles-neither
the demands of the law nor the prejudices of their enemies can
thwart their love. But Callie discovers that though the outside
world cannot conquer Rand, his inner demons might. She fights
to stay with and sustain the one man with whom she feels safe,
the one man who can hold her heart.
Rand McCullough lived his life trying to undo the last terrible
days of the Civil War because those days had cost him his family.
One act of kindness to this desperate young woman abandoned on
the Nevada desert was destined to teach him that life cannot go
forward when you won't stop looking back.
