Former Army cavalryman Quill McKenna takes pride in protecting the most powerful man in Stonechurch, Colorado: Mr. Ramsey Stonechurch himself. But the mine owner has enemies, and after several threats on his life, mines, and family, Quill decides to hire someone to help guard the boss's daughter. Calico Nash, who knows more about scouting and shooting than cross-stitching, agrees to pose as Ann's private tutor. But between escalating threats and their growing attraction, Calico will soon have a choice -- hang on to her hard-won independence or put her faith in Quill.
