Grace Wentworth is not faint of heart. Growing up with brothers she is well aware of how disgustingly vulgar young men can be when no one is listening. She doesn't consider herself particularly attractive with her flaming red hair and her overly curvy body. Still, she is not prepared for the brutal nature of Horace Remington, and for the life of her she can't understand why he is so determined to have her as his unwilling bride.
When one of her dearest friends sends out a call for help, Grace knows she must respond, both for Amelia's sake as well as her own. Rushing across the country will remove her from Horace's reach.
Grace finds herself running from two men, one who intends to make her life a living hell, and another who is determined to reap a five thousand dollar reward for her safe return before he turns in his Pinkerton badge.
Will she and her best friend, Euphemia Lane, manage to outwit them both?
