Jewel Flannery is a Pinkerton agent who uses disguises to track down wanted criminals. Her current investigation concerns a jewel thief who has an eye for the ladies. Bret Conners is a gambler and riverboat captain who befriends Jewel in the middle of her search. Will he trust her explanations, or loose the love of his life? This is a great adult historical romantic suspense novel. The setting was so wonderfully described that I could see, smell and envision the Old West. I like Jewel because she's a strong, independent woman who uses her skills to get the bad guys. She has a lot of baggage concerning her past. The author uses it to enhance and tell a story of forgiveness. Bret Connors is a fantastic counterpart to Jewel. He doesn't let her overpower him as he tries to protect her. The plot makes you want to continue reading until you get to the happy ending. This book is for anyone who likes a sappy, spicy story!
