Sweet Reckoning
Author: Eugenia Riley
Genre: Romance
Book Type: Paperback


For all her beauty and spirit, Amy Harris was wasting away. Abandoned by her father years ago and just jilted by a no account sweetheart, Amy saw little hope of ever leaving St Louis and her brutally God fearing mother. until Mark Kendall came to town. He was a tall lean hard muscled farmer who'd known her Pa back in the Civil War, and he was just passing through. His firm gaze and manly swagger fired Amy with unquenchable longing-and when this polite stranger asked her to wed, Amy thought her dreams had come true.....

Now, in a lone farmhouse amid the Missouri hills, Amy would find her gentle feelings challenged by her husband's fierce desire and their very lives threatened by outlaw gangs riding a trail of plunder through their town. And soon, as a spectre from her husband's forbiiden past rises to condemn him, her newfound love would be tested in the consuming fires of passion, truth and danger!
