He would give her his name. Nathan Taylor's wife saved his life in a tragic shooting five years earlier. Now sheriff of Devils Lake, he's shut his heart down to feeling and focused on bringing law and order to town. But not everyone's interested in settling the Dakota Territories, and he finds himself indebted to a woman who threatens the barriers surrounding his heart.
She would win his heart. Her husband's dying wish and viscious enemies send Lydia Flynn to Sheriff Nathan Taylor, a man whose knowledge of grief offers her the comfort she needs and whose sense of honor compels him to offer marriage. But both a widow and a bride, Lydia is torn between the husband of her past and the man who values her life above his own.
