      #1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller presents the Stone Creek story that started it all…

      When trouble strikes in Haven, Arizona, Ranger Sam O’Ballivan is determined to sort it out. Badge and gun hidden, he arrives posing as the new schoolteacher, and discovers his first task: bringing the ranchers’ children under control. So he starts with a call on Maddie Chancelor, the local postmistress and older sister of a boy in need of discipline.

      But far from the spinster Sam expects, Maddie turns out to be a graceful woman whose prim and proper demeanor is belied by the fire in her eyes. Working undercover to capture rustlers and train robbers has always kept Sam isolated and his heart firmly in check—until now. But something about the spirited postmistress tempts him to start down a path he swore he’d never travel….

      Dear Reader,

      It is with pleasure and pride that I take you back to Stone Creek and to Sam O’Ballivan’s world. Sam is one of my all-time favorite heroes, a man of strength, integrity, humor and honor. His lady, Maddie, is his perfect match—a partner as well as a lover, his equal in every way.

      I would also like to tell you about the scholarship program that I finance—Linda Lael Miller Scholarships for Women, awarded to those seeking to improve their lot in life through education. You can find more information on my website, www.lindalaelmiller.com.

      I also hope that you’ll be on the lookout for A Wanted Man, where we’ll revisit Stone Creek to check in on schoolteacher Lark Morgan and town marshal Rowdy Rhodes. With train robberies, gangsters and romantic sparks flying amongst it all, you won’t want to miss it! Be sure to also watch for a new trilogy in another familiar setting, Parable, Montana, beginning in June with Big Sky Summer.

      Happy reading!

      For Kathy and Betty,

      the Bannon girls,

      with love
