Gail Marsh set out for California with a dream, a trunk full of weaving supplies, and a hired guide who robbed her blind before dawn. Stranded in the wilderness with nothing but her determination, she accepts a ride from a kind couple headed west—and ends up, by way of a broken wagon, in a small town called Deepwater.
She isn't staying. She has land to find, sheep to raise, and a life to build entirely on her own terms. The blacksmith can fix the wagon and she'll be on her way. It's a simple arrangement—until she realizes Walter Briggs isn't fixing the wagon so much as finding increasingly creative reasons not to finish it.
Walter knows the wagon is done. He's known for days. What he doesn't know is how to watch the most remarkable woman he's ever met ride out of Deepwater and go back to his quiet life as if she was never in it. A storm, a fallen tree, and one honest conversation are about to make the decision for both of them—and show Gail that the life she was riding toward may have been waiting here all along.
