Love in the Shadows
(2026)(A book in the Mail-Order Brides Undercover series)
A novel by Patricia PacJac Carroll
Worthy of Trust and Confidence
Shelley Tarleton, a graduate of the Brides of Liberty Bureau, repeats the words in the oath. She is worthy of trust and confidence and is headed to Golden, Colorado Territory, on her first undercover assignment. Posing as a mail-order bride, she must let suspected swindler Percy Sinclair court her long enough to uncover who is behind a scheme defrauding honest citizens, banks, and the railroads.
Percy Sinclair is handsome, charming, and far more dangerous than Shelley expected. He has sent for a bride through the prestigious agency of Butterfield, Rutherford, and Mayes, certain he can offer her a fine future. If Shelley can win his trust without losing her head or her heart, he may lead her straight to the nest of criminals she has been sent to expose.
Under the watchful eye of veteran Secret Service agent James Stockton, Shelley steps into a dangerous game of deception, ambition, and divided loyalties. In a world of false promises and frontier corruption, catching the wrong man could cost her the mission, but trusting the right one might cost her everything.
