About this listen
Kidnapped from her Oregon-bound wagon train, a schoolteacher falls into the hands of a handsome bounty hunter and finds herself swept up in an entirely different kind of adventure.
Abigail Bliss can't tell anyone her real name. Her father insists on using an alias for their sudden move to Oregon - a turn of events that signals trouble. When bounty hunter Tanner McKnight kidnaps her, determined to take her to her wealthy grandfather in Chicago, Abby vows not to go quietly.
This lawless, untamed man is everything her father warned her against, yet as they traverse the perilous plains, Abby comes to view her abductor as her protector.
What will happen to the unexpected passion that burns between them when they reach their destination and Abby must face a surprising legacy that could keep her and Tanner forever apart?

Boring.
I tried to get into it, but it was so trite. The heroine was so boring and the hero was pretty dull. Disappointing.
