Publisher's Note
Having lost her family and her home at the end of the Civil War, prideful Miranda Cauly Dare sets out from Georgia to live with relatives in Colorado. Her westward journey crosses paths with that of one Captain Clayton Sloane, once a Union officer and therefore a sworn enemy. In spite of their differences, Miranda and Clayton embark on a journey that will change them forever--in the passionate fires of love.
She challenged his Yankee pride....He had destroyed her home, her family, her way of life. The Civil War was over, but Miranda Dare was just beginning a war of her own. The former Southern belle couldnt deny help to a wounded man, but once shed nursed Yankee Captain Clayton Sloanes wounds, she pocketed his gold--and ran. Caught in the act, she was hauled into the Fort Leavenworth stockade--then forced to join the rugged soldier on a wagon train west.He conquered her stubborn Southern heart....Clay Sloane was headed west, determined to put the war, and the army, behind him--when the blue-eyed blond beauty ignited the battle anew. Miranda Dare was the South incarnate--in all its pride and fighting glory. When Clay Sloane was ordered to lead a perilous trip to Denver--and escort a generals orphaned nieces and nephew west to safety--Miranda was by his side, temptation and salvation, stirring passions he thought he'd conquered long ago. . .

Industry reviews
In her second western, DeVries (The Gambler's Daughter) offers up a romance of the trail, with emphasis on romance rather than the nitty gritty of the route west. Miranda Dare has escaped post-Civil War Atlanta with the freed slave Cinthy, to travel by hook or by crook to Denver and her maternal uncle. She saves Captain Clayton Sloane from bandits, only to steal from him herself. To avoid imprisonment, she agrees to help Clayton deliver the three motherless children given into his charge to their father. While Clayton and Miranda are stock romance characters (brooding soldier who's been "done wrong" by a conniving woman, and feisty heroine who has to prove her mettle at every turn), the author manages to make them believable. Clay and Miranda are together on nearly every page, which for a lesser writer could make it hard to maintain interest. But DeVries (who also writes as Laura Gordon) manages to keep the sexual tension high with no more than a few kisses and a subtle sensuality. (May)
