Overview

Echols, Texas, 1883 Katie McCord bears much weight on her shoulders-single-handedly running her family's business, McCord's Confectionery, and caring for her three younger siblings. And her little shop is in trouble, which forces her to seek help from her brother, Johnny McCord, a notorious gambler living in New Orleans, or lose everything. Rowdy Denton might be a gambler working for Johnny McCord, but one look at Katie's sweet innocence tugs at the ache and guilt in his heart. For his peace of mind, he's determined to get her out of the opulent hotel and brothel kept by her brother and back to the little town in Texas where she belongs-far away from Rowdy. When Johnny refuses to sell his share to Katie, he sends Rowdy to her hometown to cause her further trouble. But, instead, Rowdy finds himself working as her hired hand and helping her keep everything together. Katie knows Rowdy has another purpose for being in Echols. He works for her brother, after all, and is a gambler himself. So, why is he helping her? When she discovers the answer to her question, she races back to New Orleans, prepared to make the biggest gamble of her life.
