Fallen Angels

She came to Sawyerville to become a respectable bride. But two men know exactly who she used to be.

Margaret Jameson has left Elkton behind—and with it the name Ruby Redd and a life she desperately wants to forget.

Together with her beautiful, headstrong friend Lucy, Margaret travels to the Oregon logging town of Sawyerville, where dozens of hopeful women have come searching for husbands among more than a thousand unmarried loggers. Margaret wants something she has hardly dared dream of: a decent home, an honorable man, and the chance to begin again.

Then she meets Joshua Zimmerman.

Tall, quiet, and hardworking, Joshua sees Margaret as the woman she longs to become. Their courtship quickly gives her reason to believe that Sawyerville truly could be home. But while Margaret embraces her new life, Lucy is far less willing to abandon the habits—and luxuries—of the old one.

And then two dangerous men recognize them.

Suddenly Margaret's carefully guarded secret is no longer safe. Mike the Muleskinner and his rough companion Artie know about the Hotel Parisienne, and they are determined to expose Margaret and Lucy before either can marry an unsuspecting logger.

Margaret fears the truth will destroy everything she has found—especially Joshua's love. But Sawyerville may have one more surprise waiting for a woman who believes her past has made her unworthy of a second chance.

Can a fallen woman truly leave yesterday behind—or will the secret she crossed Oregon to escape cost her the only man she has ever loved?

Fallen Angels is a heartfelt historical western romance about redemption, friendship, forgiveness, and the courage to believe that a woman's past does not have to determine her future.
