Sophie Hollis could charm any man. Kidnapped as a child and sold to Tek Garrett, a conman, she was a fast learner, and in no time at all, she could sweet-talk her way out of trouble. Now all Sophie wants is to be left alone to build a new life --one that was honest and decent, and based on truth rather than trickery. But the one man she wants -- Clay Connor -- is the last man she should care about. Upright and honorable, the town's marshal deserves better than a woman with a tainted past. If only Sophie can learn to trust again she might realize that this lawman would make her new life complete.
