Summary
Fugitive Sarah Prescott and the Reverend Justin Wells certainly prove the axiom that \"opposites attract\" when the traveling pastor finds the lovely outlaw handcuffed, nearly dehydrated and accompanied by a mortally wounded U. S. Marshal. Fortunately, there are always two sides to a story and Sarah insists that her death sentence has been conjured up by a host of disreputable lawmen; she has killed no one, even though she has lived most of her life on the run with her notorious gang of brothers. Justin Wells knows about false accusations; he has left Boston and made the lonely trek towards Texas on horse back after being falsely accused. Interestingly enough his next pastorate is in Rocky Creek, Texas, the very town where Sarah will be sent to the gallows when apprehended. Justin has never met anyone like the feisty redhead with swagger of a cowboy and conversation skills as tactful as a wild buffalo, but one thing is apparent and that is; Sarah needs a miracle. This is a delightful romantic western on the surface and a deeply moving expression of faith between an unlikely convert and her God underneath. The characters are wonderfully cast and the story line has more than one cliff hanger; the perfect combination for an outstanding book!
Drug & Alcohol: Obviously there were saloons in the \"wild west\".
