About this listen

How does a boy become a man of honor when everything he’s ever loved has been stolen or slain?

Jacob Calder isn’t looking for trouble—just justice. When a raid leaves his world in ruins, he sets off to track down Cullin “Red” Hobart, the man he holds responsible. Along the way, he teams up with Tom Early, a gruff loner with a tarnished reputation and a score of his own to settle. Their uneasy partnership is bound by a single promise: Jake will help clear Tom’s name if Tom helps him find Red.

But when gold fever pulls them off course and a federal marshal starts sniffing around, Jake must decide whether vengeance is worth the price—or if there’s still a chance to rewrite his story before it ends in gun smoke.

Merilee Grisham believed in her father’s dream—until it turned to dust.

Drawn into the silver fever that swept the West, her father’s ambition left them destitute… and Merilee vulnerable. Abducted and forced into a life she never chose, she’s trapped in a boomtown brothel with nothing left to believe in—until Jake Calder walks through the door.

He’s no stranger to violence. She’s no stranger to pain. But together, they just might find the strength to reclaim their lives—and forge a future written not in blood or silver, but in love.

A tale of redemption, revenge, and the kind of love that only grows in the ashes of the past.
