About this listen

June, 1852. A preacher's daughter with a secret. An outlaw running from the gallows. A love story spanning oceans and deserts and years.

When Abby Proctor is kidnapped from a train in the middle of the desert halfway to her new life in California, she makes a promise to herself—she will escape. Because there's a reason Abby is leaving Iowa and all its oppressions behind, and she refuses to be someone's prisoner again. Especially when that someone is the infamous female outlaw Joey "JT London" Taylor, Abby's brash, brooding, and inconveniently beautiful captor.

But as Abby plots her escape, she stumbles upon a larger conspiracy at play behind her kidnapping—a complicated revelation considering the feelings she's been having for Joey, who might not be the ruthless criminal everyone believes her to be. And when Abby realizes it's all connected—her kidnapping, the secrets she left behind in Iowa, even her plans in California—she has to decide between returning to a life of obedience and unhappiness, or trusting an enigmatic outlaw who is bound for the gallows.

The opening is a little bit weak (there seem to be no other passengers on the train?),but don't let this (and the DickVanDykeisms!) put you off.
I nearly sent this book back, but so glad I didn't.

Mandatory ridiculous English accents. Otherwise.....Magnificent😍

I won't lie, I was wary going into this audiobook after seeing reviews about the English accent as I am English myself but I found it wasn't that jarring after a few hours. Got used to it pretty quickly and the narrator does a decent job of it - better than some I've heard for sure!

Honestly, even if the accent had been worse - I don't think it would have deterred me from this masterpiece of a book! I am floored. The plot, the romance, the SPICE, the found family... everything about this book is wonderful and I am so invested in these characters.
I am eagerly awaiting the next book and glad I only have to wait one week.

I need the next book immediately!
