Ivory Irons is young, wealthy, and utterly gorgeous. As the only child of one of the richest men in the country, firearm mogul and manufacturer Henry Irons, she has every advantage as well as every male eye that comes her way.

Joshua Barker has never enjoyed coming to town, but must do so regularly to engage in whatever work he can find.

The two are brought together cruelly one night as Joshua halts a vicious attack which pits Ivory as the victim, and despite his best efforts, Ms. Irons proclaims to be in his debt.

What starts out as basic assistance and harmless company turns into a deep, personal, and lustful connection which neither Irons nor Barker knew they could feel.

It isn't long before her father learns of the relationship and demands she cut ties immediately, but her heart does not allow it and the two are cloaked in shame and exile and forced to risk all they know for the love they share…

To Love and War

        “Joshua, want another beer?” Brody questioned, up at the bar turning to face his friend who was in the booth at the back by himself.  After getting a thumbs up from Joshua, Brody turned to the bartender and smiled, “Two beers and two shots of your cheapest whisky, my good barman.”  


        In all reality Joshua didn’t want another beer, and without hearing Brody make the order he didn’t want a shot of whisky, but he was there so he had to go along with it until it was time to go.  He wanted to be sitting on a quilt under the stars with Ivory and a bottle of wine, he wanted to see that little face of hers grow massive in laughter, he wanted more than the cheap bar after another night of breaking his back for the man.
