In a town built on gold, she discovered the truest wealth lies in a heart of integrity.
In 1885 Florence, Idaho Territory, a female assayer with an eye for true gold partners with a haunted former surveyor to expose a deadly claim-jumping ring, only to discover that the richest strike of all might be the love they find in each other's hearts.
Ruby Lancaster knows gold better than any man in Florence, Idaho Territory. Running her late father's assay office and supply store, she's earned a reputation for spotting deception—both in minerals and in men. But when Harrison Randall arrives with evidence of a massive claim-jumping conspiracy, Ruby must decide if his own deceptions hide a heart of gold or a core of darkness.
Harry Randall carries more than mining maps in his saddlebags. He bears the weight of a murder he witnessed but failed to prevent, and a mission to bring powerful men to justice.
