In 1867, the wilds of Kansas are dangerous even for a world traveler like Lady Wilhelmina Smith, who is determined to locate her missing husband and the immensely important fossil he discovered. First, she must convince his former guide, Devlin Elder, to lead her to her husband's last known location in Indian country.
Raised among the Cheyenne, Devlin knows the brutal danger Wilhelmina faces, but the beautiful, strong-willed lady is impossible to resist, even with his guilty conscience shouting, RUN. He's the only one who can help her find her fossil while preventing her from learning the truth about her husband.
Devlin vows to protect her, though it may cost him his heart and his life.
