She has only one choice: marriage to the man who helped her—and kept her secret—along the trail.

But his plans don't include a wife, and this hasty union is just a temporary duty he'll dissolve at the end of the trail. As Mattie proves herself indispensable in the face of tragedy, though, it's soon clear that she's also indispensable to Josiah's heart…
