About The Book

Anna Meyer, a German settler, must remarry to keep the parcel of land she's acquired -- but the ghost of her abusive dead husband haunts her. She hatches a plan to marry for a year, and Chance Wyatt agrees to take the job. Though Chance falls in love with Anna, she cannot return his desire for intimacy.
