Notorious outlaw, Arthur Wilson, rings in the new century with the Harold Sloan gang. At just twenty-eight years old, Arthur is second guessing his place in the gang. The land is becoming more civilized with lawmen and government agents desperately trying to bring an end to the long standing bandits of the Wild West. It's not until Arthur meets the newly widowed Cassidy Bell that his need for more in life becomes more prevalent. Will he leave the gang to pursue a more honest lifestyle, or will Arthur succumb to Harold's orders and continue being the dangerous gunslinger he is known for?

In that moment I knew he needed comforting and sometimes that doesn't mean words, so I laid my head on his shoulder and took his hand in mine letting him know if all else goes wrong, I'll always be there for him. __________________________________ Addison Mills just had her life turned upside down, from the death of her mother to leaving the only home she's ever known and Micah, the man she loved.
