Caroline Adams returns to Indian Territory after tiring of confining society life. She wants adventure, and when she and her friend Amber come across swaggering outlaw Frisco Smith, they find his dreams for the new territory are very persuasive. With the much-anticipated land run pending, they may just join the rush. Growing up parentless, all Frisco Smith wanted was a place to call his own. It's no wonder that he fought to open the Unassigned Lands. After years of sneaking across the border, he's even managed to put in a dugout house on a hidden piece of property he's poised to claim. When the gun sounds, everyone's best plans are thrown out the window in the chaos of the run. Caroline and Frisco soon find themselves battling over a claim--and both dig in their heels. Settling the rightful ownership will bring these two closer than they ever expected and change their ideas of what a true home looks like.

Caroline and Frisco are engaging characters and definitely an unlikely couple! When she grabs the land he wanted in the Oklahoma land rush, he ends up taking land next door while she enjoys starting out in the dug-out he tried to sneak under the radar a few days before the rush. Are you already imagining the potential sparks? Oh, yes, there are sparks!
Soon the plot gets complicated by evidence that someone in the area is conspiring to steal land in the new frontier town, and several of Caroline and Frisco's new friends get mixed up in the shady deals. Maybe at last they can quit squabbling and work together to save their friends' businesses and homes? Or is that too much to ask?
A really fun story set on the old prairie.
