On her way home from Virginia City, Gabriella Cartwright gets captured by a trio of gruff looking outlaws. Riding along with them, she soon discovers who they are and it terrifies her. The trio are none other than the three men her fiancé, Candy, told her about and what he told her wasn't pleasant. When they discover who she is, a decision to use her to get three thousand dollars from her stepfather, Ben Cartwright, is made. 

After spending hours searching for Brie, Candy Canaday finally finds a clue to her whereabouts. Following the trail of hoofprints off the main road, Candy, his future father-in-law, and his four soon to be brothers-in-law rush to find the missing middle daughter of the family. When Joe tells everyone what the sheriff shared with him about a specific gang of outlaws that were said to have come through Virginia City after failing to rob the bank in Carson City, Candy realizes what they're up against. He knows the gang and they just happen to have a grudge against him and they've captured Brie, who would be the easiest way to tear into him. 

In a swirl of madness that ends up with the gang capturing Candy, the murder that the outlaws have planned isn't the only thing that's threatening the Cartwright's family. As Brie suddenly becomes extremely sick while being held hostage, Candy can only hope that both of them will make it out alive.

In this exciting tale filled with outlaws, hostages, love, and a very bad case of delirium, will Candy Canady and Gabriella Cartwright be able to have the happily ever after that they want and deserve?
