Amos was a preacher, but not a very good one. So when he got it in his head to go West, she knew there was going to be trouble. Little did she know how much.Jules Monroe was a preacher for only a few months before he was recruited as a spy for the president. Now he's stuck in Apple Blossom, in the Montana Territory, in a town full of quirky characters. Sixteen of which were clamoring to get married now that a preacher was in town. But when a young woman stumbles into the church the day he give his first sermon things get a little off track. Can Jules help a woman who's been attacked by outlaws, be undercover as the new town preacher, and protect the person he was sent to warn that trouble was coming? It was a lot to juggle, but hey, he can handle it. It's why he was chosen for this mission. Now if he could just keep himself from falling in love, he can wrap this all up in a nice bundle and be on to the next assignment. But darn if his blasted heart doesn't have other ideas!
