Description: "Journey now to Tuscon, Arizona, and into the Superstition Mountains of 1866, where a chance for escape takes two unlikely allies on a romantic adventure along a desert trail. Since orphaned at age twelve, Carmela Wade has lived a lie orchestrated by her uncle, pretending to be a survivor of an Indian kidnapping and profiting from telling her made-up story on the speaker circuit. But as she matures into adulthood, Carmela hates the lies and longs to be free. On a stagecoach in Arizona Territory, Carmela and her uncle are fellow passengers with US Marshal Freeland McKay and his handcuffed prisoner. The stage is attacked. Now a chance to make a new life may suddenly be within Carmelas reach if she can survive the harsh terrain and being handcuffed to an unconscious man. Will Carmelas wish come true, or will she forever be branded by her past?"--www.bibz.com.
