Haven (Super Historical Romance)

In 1878 in Ottawa Falls, Colorado, Sheriff Aaron McBain finds himself in a hospital looking at a beautiful nurse Anna Whitfield. Anna panics that Aaron will know her real identity Susannah Carvel, the widow of a senator murdered in DC; she is the only suspect. When Aaron recovers enough to leave the hospital, Anna remains his nurse. He knows who she is having seen her face in the newspaper coverage of her spouse's homicide and on wanted posters. The lawman is convinced Anna is innocent and offers her a shocking deal. She marries him so he can keep the woman he cherishes safe as he believes the real culprit will come for her, buy her time away from the law and also investigate who killed Senator Carvel. HAVEN is an exciting late nineteenth century police procedural romantic suspense though Aaron's compulsive means of keeping Anna safe seems extreme until the audience realizes he would risk anything even his life for the woman he loves. Readers will wonder if the hero is thinking with the wrong head as evidence seems to insist she is a black widow. The story line is fast-paced as the duo balance keeping her away from the unknown adversary and other law enforcement officials while also falling in love.
