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…

Whoever was knocking stopped, obviously having heard the commotion from within.
