About this ebook

Noreen O'Sullivan is a fervent member of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and believes she is called to defend the cause of prohibition. When she's invited to join the Secret Society of Spinsters, Noreen jumps at the chance to rally others to her movement and shut down the local saloon for good. However, her passionate campaigning often puts her at odds with the men around her--including the local deputy.

Deputy James Paxton believes in preserving the peace, but Miss O'Sullivan has been disturbing his peace for months. If James wants to be elected sheriff, he can't afford to be seen as her ally. When Noreen ropes him into helping her plan a temperance march, their growing closeness sparks unexpected feelings, but then tensions escalate at the saloon and accusations start flying, leaving James in an impossible situation. Enforcing the law might very well destroy his chance to win Noreen's heart.

Bestselling and award-winning author Karen Witemeyer presents a compelling Western series starter featuring witty characters and swoony romance.
