In The Wake of Honor
(2025)(The first book in the Sagebrush Springs series)
A novel by Melissa Maygrove
When duty called, love paid the price.
Former Union Army lieutenant Jackson Maguire returns to his war-torn hometown wounded, weary, and ready to claim the woman he loves, if she’ll have him. But before he can seek permission from her father, a crisis of honor obliterates his plans.
Caroline Bennet has loved Jackson Maguire for as long as she can remember. When he shows up with eyes full of longing and devotion, she’s certain he’s about to propose—until he takes her sister as his wife instead.
Jackson departs with his bride for a new life in Nebraska, leaving Caroline to soldier on in a suffocating fog of betrayal. Fate eventually reunites them, but will Jackson’s repentance and confession of his motives be enough to heal Caroline’s shattered heart?
