Praise and Reviews

Luke Adams is a Colorado rancher. While he is out looking for strays he
      comes across an over turned wagon. He looks around and finds a badly
      injured woman. His only clue to her identity is an engraved necklace with
      the name Gina. It is obvious from her injuries that she had been beaten
      but Gina says she has no memories of her life. Gina suffers from terrible
      nightmares and her fear continues to grow until finally she remembers
      where the danger lies.
      She fears that if she tells Luke she has her memory back he will return
      her to her vicious stepfather, the man that killed her mother in order to
      be able to marry her. She hopes to be able to earn enough money to make it
      to safety.
      When Luke compromises Gina he knows it his duty to marry her. Still Gina
      does not confess that her memory has returned. When her stepfather catches
      up with her she tries to tell Luke the truth but he only hears that she
      lied to him about her memory. Having been hurt by females before he does
      not believe the danger she says they are both in until it is almost too
      late.
