Publisher Description
New York Times best-selling author Linda Lael Miller whisks listeners away to 1910 Arizona for the fifth romance in her Stone Creek series. Determined to honor an old promise, an undercover investigator struggles to shield a childhood friend from danger while resisting the pristine allure of the woman she's clearly become. But he may have underestimated the distraction of having such a fair maiden so near-and the tenacity of a ruthless villain.

"This was a good book! One of my thrift store finds. I just wish that I knew before hand that it was part of a series. And I could've read the other Yarbro brother's stories first. And IN ORDER. LOVED Gideon. LOVED Lydia. LOVED Gideon's older brother's Wyatt and Rowdy. And their wives, (Sarah and Lark), and their kid's and families. Helga and Lydia's twin spinster aunt's, Mittie and Millie were FUNNY!. LOVED the addition of Wyatt & Sarah's dog, Pardner. And later, Snippet, the abandonded puppy that Lydia found and rescued. And later became her's & Gideon's dog. MY one and ONLY complaint was all the mine stuff. Which is why I gave this book 4 stars, instead of the full 5. My favorite part of the book was the epilogue. SO SWEET! I'm really getting into these Historical romances."

" This book (on CD) was very mis-shelved at my library. I found it in the kids' section and thought I was getting teen's historical fiction about 1910 Arizona. Instead, I got a very-adult historical romance. "
— Lily, 6/30/2012 -
" One of my favorites from this series. I like that it takes place 10 years or so after earlier books so you can see what has happened to the characters from previous book "

" Really enjoyed this book! All 3 of the books were great. Rowdy and Lark were my favorites of the 3 books. I really liked that most everyone was in all 3 books. Loved the punishment the children received when they misbehaved. Would suggest reading all 3 books and reading them in order. "
