Marigold is more comfortable in the stables of Abilene than a ballroom, but the arrival of Mateo Torres changes everything. When a dangerous masquerade forces her out of her trousers and into crimson silk, she catches the eye of the one man who can see through her disguise. Mateo is primal, powerful, and determined to claim the defiant woman beneath the trail dust. Between the smoky light of the saloon and the isolation of the frontier, their attraction burns hotter than the Kansas sun. He doesn't just want her; he wants to tame her and leave his mark. In a world of gunpowder and grit, will Marigold surrender to the raw hunger of a man who demands everything?
