Gold Dust

Gold rush dreams don't come cheap-or without danger. Fleeing the cheerless prospect of marriage to a man she despises, Sarah Delany sails into the heady excitement of Gold Rush San Francisco. She has high hopes for a new life, and romance is the last thing on her mind, especially with the rude ruffian of a gold miner she can't seem to avoid. John Lawton has brushed the grime of more than a year's work in the mining camps off his rumpled clothes. He's got a grim-willed resolve to turn a pocketful of gold into a fortune and no helpless female is going to interfere with his plans. Fate roughly intervenes, and Sarah and John must sift through a mountain of lies and deceit and a brush with death before they can hope to find the ultimate treasure--this time in each other's arms.
