Wagon Train Christmas

Sophia Lorenzo is a young widow with everything to lose.

Hiding at Bent's Fort with her one-year-old son, Sophia has carefully concealed her true identity. Her late husband's powerful parents are determined to take her child from her, and Sophia knows that being discovered could cost her the one person she loves most. To keep her son safe, she must remain hidden-and trust no one with the truth.

Buck Williams has spent years guarding his own wounded heart. As wagon master, he is accustomed to responsibility, danger, and making difficult decisions. But since losing his wife on a wagon train bound for Oregon, Buck has chosen a solitary life, convinced that caring too deeply will only bring more pain.

When Buck recognizes Sophia, he also realizes she is lying about who she is.

He does not know why.

Then Sophia finally reveals the danger threatening her and asks for his help. For Buck, protecting Sophia and her young son becomes more than an obligation. Haunted by his failure to save his wife, he begins to believe that keeping this woman and child safe might offer him a chance to make peace with the past.

But trouble is already following Sophia.

As danger closes in and the Christmas season approaches, Buck finds himself risking more than his life. Somewhere along the way, Sophia and her son have become the family he never expected to love.

Can Buck protect them from the powerful people determined to tear them apart, or will his greatest fear become reality all over again?
