Marshal Robert "Dent" Hernandez doesn't carry a badge for justice...he carries it for revenge. Remanded to the sleepy frontier town of Evergreen, Wyoming, to serve as interim sheriff, he chafes at every wasted day. He has his father's killers to find. He certainly doesn't have time to wonder why the very pretty-and very jittery-schoolteacher flinches every time someone knocks on her door.Amy keeps her secrets buried beneath steady hands and a carefully practiced smile. But Dent is a man trained to notice what others miss, and the longer he stays in Evergreen, the more he realizes that nearly everyone in town is hiding something. Secrets so dangerous they could shake the very foundation of everything he believes about justice, faith, and himself.When the truth finally surfaces, Dent will face a choice no badge can make for him: cling to the vengeance that's driven him for years, or open his heart to the faith-and the woman-that could give him something worth living for.
