Haunted by war, a thief finds salvation in the arms of an angel.

On the surface, Jake Sheridan is an easygoing man whose problems roll off him like water off a duck's back. Truth is, Jake holds so many past demons inside him, he daren't let them out for fear he'll never get them all back in.

He and the Devils are hired to help rebuild a town ransacked by marauders. Everywhere they turn, they encounter secrets - enough secrets to turn the town to dust if they don't uncover the truth.

Only one person in town isn't glad to see them: Gabrielle Rinaldi, the miller's daughter. A strong and independent woman who is used to being disrespected for speaking her mind, she makes no secret that she doesn't believe hired guns are the answer to the town's woes. Yet she finds herself drawn to the enigmatic and charming Jake.

In spite of himself, Jake falls hard and fast for Gabby. But she's wary of handing her heart to a man who lives by his guns.

When tragedy strikes, Jake and Gabby must fight to find a way to save the town - and their hearts.
