Lady Luck

Marne, a young woman on her own for the first time, was not prepared for what she found on her arrival in Deadwood Gulch in the Dakota Territory. She came to Deadwood Gulch to help her father work his gold mine because he had taken ill. It was a gold mine of sorts, but not the kind Marne expected. Arriving in Deadwood Gulch, she is met by Ruby Black, a friend of her father’s who had sent the letter requesting her to come. After Ruby informs her of her father’s death, Marne insists she be taken to where her father lived and worked the last two years of his life. It is then that she finds out the Number 7 wasn’t a mine, but a saloon her father won in a poker game. Genre: Romance / Historical Fiction
