Gambler's Gold
As the only single female on the wagon train bound for California, Charlotte encountered more insults and unfair treatment than she had in her whole miserable life back in Massachusetts. Still, she was determined to make a new start as a schoolteacher and find her missing father. But her near plans went awry when false scandal threatened her place in the group. And the only person willing to take responsibility for the "Fallen Woman" was none other the Reade Elliot - the man who ruined her reputation in the first place.
