title: The Last Chance
author: Marvine, Dee
description: Mattie is on a frantic journey West. On her own, with only her grit and determination to see her through, she has to find her charming gambler of a fiance, and she has to do it fast--before her pregnancy shows. From a steamboat along the Missouri River to the rough-and-tumble post-gold rush town of Last Chance, Montana, Mattie's trek leads her through danger and sorrow, friendship and joy. But even after she finds her fiance, no bend in the trail leads to what she expected.
