Keeping secrets is nearly impossible on an Oregon-bound wagon train. But Alice Spencer has kept a whopper from her protective brothers for months: she once fancied herself in love with her wealthy boss's grandson. Her brothers don't know she's the reason Rob Braddock came on this westward journey. Only that he's part of the reason they had to leave their home and friends behind. Her brothers will never forgive Rob—and neither can she.
The company is still weeks away from the Willamette Valley when Rob injures himself saving the youngest Spencer brother's life. Alice has no choice but to pay back the life-debt. She strikes a deal to help the injured Rob finish his journey to Oregon, at which point, they'll go their separate ways. All she has to do is keep from falling in love with him. Again.
