The Gambler's Second Chance

Professional gambler Luke “Ace” Haven foolishly proposed to a pretty missionary gal who has an unfortunate fondness for ugly bonnets. Coming to his senses he heads for the hills, only he fails to properly break off the engagement. When the lively woman shows up in his favorite Wild West town with hopes of taming it with a church, Ace will use every trick up his sleeve to prevent a steeple from darkening the skies. He also needs to reclaim the gift of an emerald necklace to build his very own saloon and gaming parlor, but his attempts to sweet talk Eva prove risky. And if Ace isn’t careful his heart might be lassoed a second time.

Missionary Evangeline Prudence Dow fell for a devilishly charming cowboy who pretended to be a minister. After learning the fast-talking rogue is no saint, she is eager to return East and devout herself to the suffragette cause. First she must help her preacher father retire to a country church. An invitation to establish a church in a quaint whistle-stop town seems perfect until she discovers it is home to the liar who tromped her heart and worse yet, she is more attracted than ever to the gambler. Upon witnessing his love and devotion to a family ranch dedicated to rescuing orphaned boys, her good sense is in danger of crumbling, again. But Evangeline won’t be tricked a second time.

Lies big and small stand in the way of…The Gambler’s Second Chance.
