Wild Cards and Iron Horses

Their love rides on a spring and a prayer...

During the recent Civil War, a soldier risked his life to save
Jonathan Handleston—and lost. With the help of an advanced
metal brace on his crippled hand, Jon now travels from one poker
tournament to the next, determined to earn enough money to
repay the man’s debt.

Prosperity Ridge is supposed to be the last stop on his quest, but
his brace is broken and he needs an engineer to repair the
delicate mechanisms. The only one available is Samantha
Weatherly, a beautiful anomaly in a world ruled by men.

Sam is no fool. Jon is no different from any other gambler—except
for his amazing prosthetic. Despite a demanding project to win a
critical contract to develop an iron horse, she succumbs to the
lure of working on the delicate mechanisms. And working with the
handsome Englishman.

Like a spring being coiled, Samantha and Jon are inexorably
drawn together. Sam begins to realize honor wears many faces,
and she becomes the light at the end of Jon’s journey to
redemption. The only monkey wrench is Victor, a rival gambler
who will stop at nothing to make sure Jon misses the tournament.
Even destroy Jon and Sam’s lives.
