An Irish spitfire meets her match in a western romp from national bestselling romance author Raine Cantrell.

Maggie O'Roark knows how to walk, talk, and fight like a man. When Maggie inherits her uncle's profitable silver and gold mines, she's determined to prove she can operate them on her own, even as her wedding date approaches. When Maggie's groom is kidnapped just before the wedding, Maggie is convinced saloon owner C.V. McCready is responsible, in a desperate bid to keep her from reopening the mines.

McCready is a silver-tongued con man, but when he sees Maggie in her wedding finery, he becomes obsessed with protecting her from less savory men who would do anything to get their hands on her mines. McCready kidnaps Maggie and claims her in a marriage by proxy, setting the stage for the fiercest and funniest battle of the sexes in the West.
