Experience has taught Laurel to be suspicious of the men who pass through Morrison Station.

She’s been running the lucrative operation that connects Colorado’s small frontier town of Falls Hollow with the stagecoach line since she inherited it from her father, and she’s not about to let some wandering cowboy take over the reins. Then former Union soldier Call Landry arrives in town..

When the stagecoach bearing the payroll for the town’s miners is robbed, the mining company hires Call to investigate, and he declares Morrison station his home base, agreeing to help Laurel out with odd jobs if she’ll let him use the space. Laurel and Call’s friendship soon turns to sizzling attraction and Call confesses his interest to Laurel; she’s wary of reciprocating, however, as she’s worried he’ll leave town once the case is closed. But Call’s determined to prove her wrong.

He seems to genuinely care for Laurel, and with his rugged good looks and mysterious past, he could be the one man to finally tempt her off track . . . Flirtatious banter and the unsolved stagecoach robbery enliven this spirited, stand-alone frontier romance from Goodman. The mystery is fast paced and intriguing and the nuanced characterization of the protagonists bolsters their sensual romance. Readers looking for witty western romance will be thrilled.
