Years before pesticides and other pollutants began to endanger species, humans had no trouble finding less-sophisticated ways of endangering wildlife. When the twentieth century had barely begun, the passenger pigeons had been slain to the last and the American bison had been hunted to the brink of extinction.

A sweet Western romance from the beloved author with “a style reminiscent of LaVyrle Spencer’s earliest books” (Linda Howard, New York Times–bestselling author of The Woman Left Behind). Secrets and lies made poor references, Linnea McConaughy knew. But her survival depended upon keeping her past hidden, especially from her employer, rancher Will Tucker. True, he’d shown her kindness, even tenderness, but could he ever accept her shameful past—and another man’s baby? Will Tucker did not like surprises, and Linnea McConaughy was not the sturdy, past-her-prime widow he’d expected to manage his household. Instead, she was a tiny slip of womanhood desperately seeking a place to belong. Yet much to his growing surprise, that place seemed to be in his home—and his heart!
