A Reason to Sin

Rebecca Colfax had been a well-to-do young woman with a bright future in St. Louis. Then her husband gambled all her money away and disappeared into the night. Alone, homeless and desperate, she was forced to take her son to an orphanage, and now she's determined to do anything to get him back. Little did she know she'd encounter a man destined to change the course of her life

Rebecca Colfax was out of options. Which is how she wound up working at the Scarlet Garter in Oaktree, Kansas as a singer and hurdy-gurdy girl, trying to scrape together enough money to get her son back. She doesn't want anyone to know her secrets—especially not sexy Slater Forrester, a faro dealer and ex-spy who's clearly haunted by something in his own past. But when violence bursts through the saloon's doors, she discovers a dangerously appealing side to Slater, a side she finds hard to resist. But how will the man she's falling for react when he uncovers the secrets she's keeping?
