#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR

#1 New York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey takes you on a captivating adventure in 1880s Montana where passions and gold fever run high as an American heiress turns to a rugged mountain man to help her locate her father’s fortune.

 

Summoned back to Philadelphia from the social whirl in London, Violet Mitchell never expected to find her brothers living on the edge of financial ruin while their father seeks new wealth in Montana’s gold fields. With the family’s home and social standing at risk, Violet makes a drastic decision.

 

Morgan Callahan rode away from his family’s cattle ranch to make his own fortune. Now as he finishes exploiting a mother lode of silver, a young woman claiming to be his late partner’s daughter turns up wanting to be taken to her father’s mine. Suspecting that the pretty schemer works for the mining outfit that is trying to steal his land, he has no qualms about snatching her and holding her at his camp where she can do no harm.

 

Morgan underestimated the new thorn in his side. Determined to claim what rightfully belongs to her family, Violet summons up the courage, grit, and spunk to cope with the hazards and discomforts of an untamed land and the disturbingly masculine stranger who holds her fate in his hands. But an error of judgment brings down a hailstorm of calamity and danger that upends her plans and deepens her bond to a man who is not the brilliant match a lady wishes to make, but could be all that a strong, passionate woman desires.

    Q. How would you describe your life in only eight words?

    A. Currently, peaceful and full of laughter. Overall—amazing.

     

    Q. How would you describe perfect happiness?

    A. I don’t think anything that broad in scope can be described. It’s one of those “to each his own.” For me it’s rather simple—sharing my life with someone I love.

     

    Q. What’s your greatest fear?

    A. Loss of loved ones.

    Q. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you choose to be?

    A. Where I am.

     

    Q. What are your most overused words or phrases?

    A. Cool. Yeah, it’s outdated, but it’ a rare day you’ll catch me saying “awesome.”

     

    Q. If you could acquire any talent, what would it be?

    A. I used to paint with oils. Didn’t have much talent for it, and I don’t have the patience to actually acquire some skill for it, but if I could, that would be—cool.

    A. Not thinking about my eternal diet, I’m going to say pizza.

     

    Q. What are your five favorite songs?

    A. “What You Give” by Tesla. “Feelin’ Way Too Damn Good” by Nickelback. “Overkill” by Colin Hay. “Feeling Good” by Nina Simone. “As a Judgement” by Ennio Morricone.

     

    Q. Who are your favorite authors?

    A. I would have to say Kathleen Woodwiss and Rosemary Rogers, who started this wonderful genre.

    Q. Is there a book you love to reread?

    A. Don’t laugh, but I like to reread my own books. A few can make me cry again, and most of them can make me laugh again.

     

    Q. Do you have one sentence of advice for new writers?

    A. Put your heart into what you’re writing. If you can’t laugh at your own characters, or shed a tear for them, or even get angry at one of them, no one else will either.

     

    Q. What comment do you hear most often from your readers?

    A. That they love the Malorys. So do I.
