JULIA WREN HAS AN UNSEEN ENEMY Pressured into staging her play for the genteel residents of Tuxedo Park, college student Julia resigns herself to mingling with the upper crust. But she never imagined she'd have to protect herself from danger lurking in the production. Or that she'd have to join forces with wealthy heartthrob Robert Malcolm to do so. Even though they're from different worlds, Robbie's captivated by the feisty young playwright—and he won't see her hurt. Together they work to discover who's out to get Julia. But as their love grows, will they be able to overcome their different social standings before the curtain falls on their romance?
Grant Diamond is a professional gambler on the run from his past. When he comes across a wagon wreck outside of Eureka, California, the chance to escape his pursuers is too good a gamble to pass up, and he assumes the identity of the dead wagon driver. His plan takes an unexpected turn when lumber heiress Lily Rose mistakes him for the missionary she had asked to come work with the Wiyot Indians. Seeing Eureka as a promising place to lie low, Grant plays along. Before he knows it, he’s bluffing his way through sermons and building an Indian school. But with a Pinkerton on his trail and a local rancher rousing fresh hatred against the Indians, Grant fears the new life he’s built may soon crumple like a house of cards.
