Glorious
Series: Cash McLendon (1)
We all got mistakes in our past we’d rather forget. Cash McLendon has always had an instinct for self-preservation, one that was honed by an impoverished childhood and life with an alcoholic father barely scraping by on the streets of St. Louis in 1872. He’s always had a knack for finding and capitalizing on the slightest opportunities, choosing the path of financial security over happiness or real friends. He eventually builds himself up from St. Louis street-urchin to the son-in-law and heir apparent to industrial mogul Rupert Douglass. Though it lacks passion, his life seems securely set: A wife, a career, property, standing. But when tragedy strikes, all of his plans and his entire future dissolve in an instant. His instinct for survival kicks in and he flees St. Louis before Douglas and his enforcer, an ominous skull-cracker with steel-toed boots, can track him down. With nothing to lose, McLendon decides to track down an old flame – a woman he was nearly engaged to, but put aside in exchange for the life now in shambles. He heard through the grapevine that she and her father moved their dry goods store out west, to a speck-on-the-map mining town named Glorious, in the Arizona Territory. There tries to win her back, but instead discovers a life and community. But he can’t outrun his past forever…
