Lucie's Review: Silver Matlock will not stand to be jilted at the alter, and hires the services of a bounty hunter by the name of Jared Newman to find her runaway fiance. Will Silver and Jared find what they are looking for or will they perhaps find something better instead?
Silver is a real trooper, never complaining, and handling herself well while on the trail. Sometimes she and Jared don't communicate well, as Silver does not always do what she's told, and Jared doesn't tell her what he is doing. Which made for some humorous developmental interactions.
Jared is a tough, mysterious bounty hunter, with his own way of doing things, and a past that haunts him.
Overall, this is a fantastic, action-packed western adventure, with the every thing from shoot-outs, and wild chases, with good guys, bad guys, and some guys in between. The story engages quickly and the pace is wonderfully, moving ever closer to a crescendo of an exciting conclusion. The characters are strong and grow in their faith and as in individuals over the course of their journey together. A great western read!

A bounty hunter seeking vengeance for a ravaged past.
An arduous trek toward justice---or redemption.
Silver Matlock and Jared Newman know traveling together is a bad idea. Bad for Silver's already tarnished reputation in her small Colorado town. Bad for bounty hunter Jared's secret, single-minded mission for revenge. But Silver is determined to track down the rogue who left her at the altar and stole the last remnant of her father's fortune. And Jared's in a hurry to hunt down the murderer who destroyed his family---even if Silver is too distractingly beautiful for comfort.
The pair takes off over mountain and desert, past bleak homesteads and raw mining towns, hot on the trail of the two villains who took what wasn't theirs to take. Soon supplies dwindle, secrets emerge, and suspicion leave Silver and Jared at odds when they need each other most. To confront an enemy deadlier than desert rattlesnakes and rocky cliffs, Silver and Jared must learn to forgive and trust and face the question they haven't dared voice: What happens next?
