Liam McKettrick is playing his role as town marshal in Bitter Gulch, an Old West-experience town in Montana, when a woman in a bridal gown bursts into the saloon. Madison Bettencourt left her fiancé at the altar when she realized he would never prioritize her over his overbearing mother. It could be the start of a romance, but life is complicating things. Liam has finally regained custody of his children after a battle with his late wife’s parents, and Madison’s grandmother is dying. The story flashes back 24 years, when Bliss Morgan, who is poor and practically orphaned by apathetic parents, meets her friend Madison in the cemetery, until one day when she experiences a strange phenomenon and ends up in 1897. Miller imbues her latest, which can stand alone among her vast McKettrick series, with a hint of time-traveling magic, though the focus of the book is on Liam and Madison’s burgeoning relationship. Readers will be eager to know more about Madison’s friends, each of whom has a story that begs to be developed.
