To him, she was the perfect definition of an angel. What would an angel like her want with a cowboy like him? Did he even stand a chance to win her heart? Dixie Harden and Jason Archer have had it for each other since they were little. After the school closed and the Archer's moved, they haven't seen each other in ages. But that was about to change. One day, unexpectedly, they run into each other at the mercantile. It was peaches and cream from there. All seemed to be perfect, and they would have each other at last, or so they thought. After crucial circumstances pull them apart, the things that surface become too much to bear. Will their love last despite all the lies and treachery, or will the cowboy lose his angel? Started: March, 2019 Ended: September 18, 2019 Edited: 🚫 Word Count: 55,235 Note: This was my second ever book to write, and it's super cringy. It's also written in country/western lingo so some things won't seem grammatically correct. Also, this book is based on the Wild West time period (1865-1895). Some of the places that will be mentioned in this book are fictional places I have come up with, others are (or were) real but may look different than they actually looked in history. Scriptures used are from KJV.
