When he awoke by the side of the road, with a throbbing head and a lovely woman bending over him, he couldn't even remember his own name. Morgan Slater, U.S. Marshal, simply accepts pretty Mariah Penny's word that he is her cousin, Cain Law. And that he is part of the family's medicine show.
Mariah has good reason for misleading Morgan. The hard-headed lawman is hell-bent on shutting down her legitimate business.
Soon Cain is running afoul of the law he's sworn to protect, and Mariah is caught in her own trap as cousinly banter turns into forbidden passion.
