Flint Mackenzie's got a lot to learn about women and Garnet Scott is just the gal to teach him. When Flint comes across a wagon train, he warns the travelers of impending Indian attacks-he's seen the signs for a few days. The migrants won't believe him, and Flint leaves early the next morning, only to discover he's been followed by a redhead who does believe. He doesn't know it yet, but this determined gal is about to change his life.
Flint's been on the trail of the man responsible for the murders of two Mackenzie women, his mother and sister-in-law. Garnet's been a distraction he can't afford to get involved with, or afford to ignore. While the feisty redhead is willing to watch his back, she's got her own agenda, and no outlaw is going to ultimately stand in her way. Will Garnet get what she wants, or will Flint's wanderlust always be a problem to be reckoned with?
This is the reissue of Flint's story, but it's well worth the second reading. The plot is fast paced and at times, has a light sense of humor. Flint thinks he knows his own mind, and discovers he's got a lot to learn after all. Flint and Garnet are well developed characters, amusing at times, and always encouraging you to turn the next page. They, along with the secondary characters, will keep you entertained through the last page.
