The Plot:
Escaping from her abusive ex-husband, Marissa Simpson returns to her hometown to
start over. She spends her days working at the local jewelry store, and the rest of her time is
dedicated to mining along Red Rock River, searching for precious gems. Marissa has no
intention of getting involved with another man, or with the community she left behind all
those years ago. That is, until Riley McCade shows up.
Riley is the sheriff of Quartz County. He loves his community and goes out of his way
to protect and serve. When he meets up with Marissa, he’s bound and determined to get to
know her even though she insists she’s not interested.
The more he gets to know her, the more he learns about her past. Can he protect her
from her ex-husband and earn her love?
Reviews Welcome.
