Hidden Prospects: A Forbidden Love Christian Western Romance: Prescott Pioneers Book 5
About this ebook
Prescott, Arizona Territory — April 1869
Millie Pritchett arrives in town with little more than a weathered valise and secrets too dangerous to unpack. Cast out by her father’s new wife, the thirty-seven-year-old spinster is determined to stay invisible. But working for Prescott’s most eligible bachelor upends everything, especially when her guarded heart begins to crack.
Paul Lancaster built his family’s business with quiet sacrifice. At thirty-eight, the respected entrepreneur is still reeling from his mother’s remarriage and the threats looming over everything he’s worked for. Hiring Millie was a gesture of compassion. Falling for her? An unplanned risk.
As Millie’s past claws closer and whispers swirl through town, Paul must decide what he’s willing to gamble—his reputation, his livelihood, and one last chance at love. Because some prospects are worth digging deep… even when the cost cuts to the bone.
Hidden Prospects wraps up the Prescott Pioneers series with a soulful blaze of redemption, grit, and faith—proving that God's timing never fails, even when it comes decades late.
