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?

Why don't you believe?" I ask whilst clenching the cross necklace that laid around my neck. "God has the ability to heal the world so if he exists why doesn't he? Why does he let innocent people suffer just to spite the ones doing wrong? Why would he leave two young boys motherless and then parentless? Why does character building mean going through shit?" Holden's voice cracks and I see his lips quiver, he looks away avoiding my gaze. 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.
