On the surface, Jake Sheridan is an easygoing man whose problems roll off him like water off a duckโs back. Truth is, Jake holds so many past demons inside him, he darenโt let them out for fear heโll never get them all back in.
He and the Devils are hired to help rebuild a town ransacked by marauders. Everywhere they turn, they encounter secretsโenough secrets to turn the town to dust if they donโt uncover the truth.
Only one person in town isnโt glad to see them: Gabrielle Rinaldi, the millerโs daughter. A strong and independent woman who is used to being disrespected for speaking her mind, she makes no secret that she doesnโt believe hired guns are the answer to the townโs woes. Yet she finds herself drawn to the enigmatic and charming Jake.
In spite of himself, Jake falls hard and fast for Gabby. But sheโs wary of handing her heart to a man who lives by his guns.
When tragedy strikes, Jake and Gabby must fight to find a way to save the townโand their hearts.
