The Songbird and the Surveyor

A marriage of protection. A past full of pain. In Georgia's wild gold country, love might strike when it's least expected. Genevieve Gillbard knows she's no longer safe in the rough-and-tumble gold rush town when she overhears her controlling guardian's plot to steal gold from a local mine owner. It takes every ounce of her courage to escape, and now she'll do anything to keep herself safe, even accept a temporary marriage of convenience from a man who clearly wants nothing more than his independence. After losing his first wife, surveyor Jesse Holden swore never to let anyone close enough to need him again. But when he discovers the woman he knows as the Songbird of Auraria injured and unconscious in the woods, he can't abandon her, not with the memory of his failure to protect his wife hanging over him. He'll keep this woman safe until she's out of harm's way, even if it means doing the one thing he swore he'd never do again. As Genny recovers under Jesse's care, she discovers he's nothing like the manipulative men of her past. But can she trust him with her heart—knowing he plans to leave as soon as her guardian is brought to justice? And even then, she fears the sham marriage might not be enough to keep her safe from her guardian's long reach.
