The last thing an heiress needs is to be suspected of being not only a saloon girl, but also a thief. Especially when the one doing the suspecting is the townâs handsome sheriff.
Phoebe Reed made the mistake of going into town. Maybe that wasnât the mistake. Maybe it was staying in town after dark. Or maybe it was running into the saloon girl. Or maybe it was lying about the stolen wallet the saloon girl slipped her. Maybe it was a series of mistakes that have left her in hot water with the townâs hunky sheriff, Rance Connelly.
Rance takes his job as the townâs law seriously. He managed the lawlessness with a sensible head and a no-nonsense manner. He knows this womanâs lying to him. He just canât peg why. He also knows sheâs not a saloon girl. Why wonât she tell him her name? Why wonât she confess to stealing the wallet?
Heâs got a mystery to solve but darned if his heart doesnât get in the way of his head when it comes to the mysterious unnamed woman.
