The Runaway Bride

Sandra Chastain unleashes a steamy tale of two determined individuals braving the uncharted territories of the West—and of the heart.
 
If there’s one thing Annalise Sinclair cannot do, it’s derail her plans to be a doctor just to marry a rich man like Daniel Miller. Besides, a woman can’t have a profession and a husband. Eager to put as much country as possible between her and Daniel’s tempting gaze, she makes tracks for the Wild West. But no matter how deep into the wilderness the train takes her, she can’t avoid the one man she’d hoped to outrun.
 
Once the transcontinental railroad is complete, big money will be made. Until then, the entire Miller fortune is in jeopardy. If Daniel had married a rich woman like Annalise Sinclair, his family’s worries would be over. Determined to prove his worth, Daniel vows to make his own way by building a spur off the main line. But then trouble comes in the forms of natives, saboteurs, and a stubborn woman named Annie who makes the job a whole lot more difficult . . . and stimulating.
