Arizona's not big enough. . .
Julia Newman has dreamed of heading home to Arizona since she went East two years ago to teach. But her long-awaited return is off to a decidedly rocky start after a hasty telegram summons her home to mourn her beloved mother's death. Then the stagecoach is held up en route and the very first person she meets in town is Adam Scott—the man she loved but couldn't have.
Adam is uncertain how to feel now that Julia's back in Ardell. She's as pretty as ever, but their past still threatens to keep them apart. When Adam begins to suspect Julia's brother of the robbery, the future doesn't look much better.
As Julia struggles to clear her brother's name and Adam prays his best friend and former love aren't guilty, will a bright future be within their reach?
