From New York Times bestselling author Janet Dailey comes a captivating story of a man who's given up, a woman who won't let go, and a race to find a treasure that could bring them wealth and so much more. Life in Glory, Wyoming, population fifty-one, isn't exactly exciting. The dusty old town isn't even on the map. And for rancher Luke McCallister, that's just fine. Broken by tragedy, the stoic cowboy spends his time at his Ten Bar Ranch or down at Ima Jane's Rimrock Bar, trying to avoid the gossip being served along with the food and drink. But the everyday quiet of his life is shattered when he finds a human skull—and possibly the key to Glory's oldest mystery. It was one hundred years ago that a band of outlaws were said to have buried their gold in Glory. The one surviving bandit took the secret of the treasure's hiding place with him to the gallows. Angie Sommers knows the story cold: that man was her great-great-grandfather. She's come to Glory to see if the old legend of the gold is true, and she wants Luke to help her find it. She even has incentive: a possible clue written by the dead man himself. Luke has no interest in chasing after pipe dreams. He's seen the damage too much hope can bring. Still, he can't deny that Angie makes him feel things he hasn't allowed himself to feel in years. Something about her sweet, trusting nature, her honest eyes, and unshakable belief makes him feel alive again—and that could be dangerous. For someone else is determined to stop Angie—someone who would do anything for the outlaws' gold. Now, bound by the thinnest of ties and shadowed by danger, Luke and Angie set off in search of a mystery as romantic as the West itself on a journey of faith that will take them into Wyoming's rugged, treacherous terrain and even deeper into the heart's tender graces.

"I really liked the ending to this book. It made me think about all the things I sometimes take for granted that I have in my life." — Sunshinejulie (4 out of 5 stars)
"I really liked the ending to this book. It made me think about all the things I sometimes take for granted that I have in my life."
“Veteran tale-spinner Dailey depicts ranching life with a sure-handed, affectionate humor.”
“In a departure from her many romances, Dailey’s mainstream tale of a moribund town’s struggle to survive, fighting despair with faith, and trying to reconcile their needs and desires with the demands of hospitality and neighborliness, is curiously gripping.”
" Janet Daily still keeps me entertained after all these years. This is a nice paced story with just the right touch of intrigue. "
" Wyoming cowboy, Iowa farmgirl, a town so small it isn't even on the map, its gossipy proprietor and buried treasure! Several interesting characters make this a pretty good Western adventure! "
" I liked this "brain candy", but I wasn't crazy about the ending. "
" I like this kind of story to listen to in my car. "
" Ehhh... nice story - but what a fairytale happy ending! Not really realistic. "
" September 2011 Joyce Smith book about a granddaughter who goes to Wyoming to claim her grandfather's body. Good Story. "
" Fun read, but I thought it was predictable. "
" A story of a woman's search for buried treasure and the journey to find it. "
" It's nice to read a book every once in a while where you don't have to think. Not much to this one, but I enjoyed it--I usually enjoy everything I read! "
" It was ok. I figured out the big secret about 1/4 the way into the book, and there wasn't even that much romance. I like a lot of romance, so I was disappointed in that. "
" An enjoyable, easy read. I liked the book. A tad predictable in the end but interesting story. A little bit of potential love but not a romance. A mystery. I'd give it 3.5 stars if I could. "
" A mystery, a western, a romance. Meh. Recommended by a friend but not my cup of tea. Cliched ending, don't waste your time. "
" A "formula" book. Predictable plot. The only time I took notice was when the old ranch hand said "whom do you suppose..." I kept thinking that maybe he was really someone in disguise - more likely just an editing error. "
" Thought this was just a romance, but actually had somewhat of a treasure hunt searching for gold. "
" Not really any romance but a good book. "
" Not one of her best but it was okay. "
" It was ok...if you haven't read a romance novel in a LONG time. But I figured out the big secret about 1/4 the way into the book, and there wasn't even that much romance. The story was ok, but just too predictable. "
