Following his wife's death, Rodney Stockton lost his fortune. His daughters faced poverty and were being ostracized by Philadelphia's elite society—he had to do something for them, insisting Quinn, his youngest daughter, promise to take her sisters to Colorado and find his brother. Riding the stagecoach to Tornado, Colorado, Quinn wonders if she made a mistake when she kept her promise to their father. Then she meets Ashe Montgomery, a man whose very presence stirs her in ways she's never before experienced. He's a US Marshall sent to Tornado as acting sheriff to solve a rash of mysterious stage robberies. Ashe enlists the help of his brothers, Beck and Cal.

She's the first woman to intrigue him since his fiancé left him standing at the altar. But things are never simple...

About the author

I have held many jobs in my lifetime, but have always considered writing my career. While in the business world, I managed to write and sell over 400 articles, poems and short stories for magazines and news paper. During this time, I toyed with writing novels, but those efforts are now tucked away in my files. In 1999 I started my first mystery novel. It was published in 2004 and was nominated for the best NC fiction by the Historical and Literary Society of NC. Fiona’s Journey is my 10th novel, but the first written under the name Agnes Alexander and the first Western Romance
