But as their fiery confrontation flares into a wild and unfettered passion, they are bound together in a dangerous destiny-with much more than just frontier dreams at stake....... A Lady of the West.Victoris Waverly was a noble daughter of the war ruined South-and wife in name only to a heartless Western rancher. Yet neither honor nor pride could quench her forbidden desire for hired gunman Jake Roper.
