Ruthless men rule savage, lawless, 1880's frontier Skagway, Alaska. Women are only welcome in dance halls. Young widow, Jessie, barely knows how to fend for herself, much less those depending on her in the unwelcoming man's world. Brokenhearted lumberjack, Logan, is seeking his fortune and deserves better than Jessie, with her haunted past and overwhelming responsibilities. She must survive, thrive, and prove to herself she's worthy of love.
