Gambler Chase Summers has always counted on luck, and when he wins a map to a secret gold mine from a man named Roscoe in a card game, he thinks he's finally struck it rich. But he needs help to get to California.

Ms. Trixie survives by running a profitable brothel. She takes care of her ladies, they take care of lonely travelers, and Trixie never gets involved with any manuntil the day he shows up. Chase Summers is trouble with a capital T, but there's just something about this charming, sharp-dressed man that gets under her skin.

Chase thinks he's found the perfect woman to share his future with, but when he stumbles across another map in Ms. Trixie's possession, he realizes he's been swindled. Roscoe is Trixie's uncle, and the map he gave Chase was a fake. Determined to outsmart Roscoe and take what should belong to him, he steals Trixie's map and hitches a ride on a wagon train heading west.

Jade Whitman also needs passage to California. Betrayed and abandoned by her fiancé, she'll do whatever it takes to head west and try her luck in the gold mines. But wagon trains won't accept unmarried women, so when smooth-talking stranger Chase Summers offers her a marriage of convenience, she's desperate enough to agree. Though this soon proves to be a mistake as she finds herself falling in love with the handsome, widowed wagon master.

Heartbroken and mad as hell, Ms. Trixie is not about to let Chase Summers waltz into the sunset with her map. She sets out after him, and when she finally catches him and his new "wife," secrets are revealed, bargains are struck, and a plan is formed.

But the road to California is fraught with dangers. And when Chase's past catches up with him, he'll have to make one last gamble, and the stakes are as high as they can get. Can he save his fortune and the woman he lovesor has his luck finally run out?

Autorenporträt
Linda Colwell credits her upbringing in a peaceful valley in West Virginia as the cocoon that nurtured her creativity. People, nature, and the calm small-town lifestyle developed her sensitivities, piqued her curiosity. Settling in Michigan as a teenager opened her to a new crop of ideas and possibilities.
Writing was a small voice inside of her that asked to be given expression. She tended to push it aside until her college English professor, Ms. Cody said, "If you don't do something with your writing ability, I'll come back and haunt you."
When Linda married and eventually became the mother of three sons, she did much more reading than she did writing. Once her sons grew and were well on their way, Linda granted herself the freedom to pursue her lifelong ambition as a published author and writer.
Her path led her on a wonderful journey of self-discovery. First writing short stories pulled from memories fed her desire to write more. Linda had the ability to take a memory, picture, or feeling and weave it into a creative and fascinating tale that would erupt magically from her muse. All of this culminated into her focus to write novels and have her works published for all to enjoy.
This path propelled her in writing circles to meet new people and other writers who would become life-long friends and provide many fond memories, which eventually in 2000 led to her first published novel, When the Lilacs Bloom, a very well-received paranormal romance that was critically acclaimed by many. She was soon hard at work on her second full novel, Cry of the Brethren.
Unfortunately, at times life challenges us, and after her husband fell ill with a chronic illness that curtailed her ability to fully pursue her craft, she again set aside her dream to take care of her family as a loving wife and mother. At the time Linda had several other works written and ready for publication. Ultimately while she was not able to fully realize her dream in her lifetime, happily now we are able to honor Linda with the publication of all her novels. Of course this one being Cry of the Brethren, with several more novels Linda had written to follow. Look for Towards the Sunset being the next of her books to be released in the near future.
