Synopsis

With the Civil War over, Angela Stapleton can pursue her dream of becoming a doctor. Then Ransom Champion, her deceased sister's fiancée–reported dead in battle–shows up alive. He’s come to claim his devoted fiancée, an illusion created by Angela in the letters she wrote him during the war. A deathbed promise to her sister forces Angela to hide her heart as well as the truth. Ransom must never know she was his wartime correspondent. Two dreams kept Ransom alive while he was in a Federal prison–Sabrina and his ranch. He’s come to claim Sabrina, but she’s dead. And now her sister Angela is in trouble up to her beautiful gray eyes. Not only is she a former Confederate spy, but she’s been charged with murdering Sabrina. Ransom’s solution: marry Angela and take her to Texas where they will start a new life. This plan only works if the old life doesn’t follow them.
