About this ebook
High-Stakes Drama Meets High-Tension Romance
In 1883 Michigan, Lily Young is on a mission to save her lost sister, or die trying. Heedless of the danger, her searches of logging camps lead her to Harrison and into the sights of Connell McCormick, a man doing his best to add to the hard-earned fortunes of his lumber baron father.
Posing during the day as a photographer's assistant, Lily can't understand why any God-fearing citizen would allow evil to persist and why men like Connell McCormick turn a blind eye to the crime rampant in the town. But Connell is boss-man of three of his father's lumber camps in the area, and like most of the other men, he's interested in clearing the pine and earning a profit. He figures as long as he's living an upright life, that's what matters.
Lily challenges everything he thought he knew, and together they work not only to save her sister but to put an end to the corruption that's dominated Harrison for so long.

Wonderful book! This book is well written, researched, and historically accurate, yet it has a fairy tale quality that draws readers in. Can't wait to read more from this author!

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. The subject matter is hard to read because of how truthfully ugly it is. Very excellent writing. The characters are exceptionally human and believable. The story is non-stop action. I highly recommend this novel.

Have lost count of the books I've read of Miss Hedlund's but this one like the rest, had just the right amount of suspense, mystery, and of course clean & pure Romance. I have yet to be disappointed!
