Clara Mayfield has built a quiet life at Rosewater Station, a lonely outpost where the prairie stretches wide and the past is supposed to stay buried. She serves meals, draws water, and keeps her distance?because asking questions in the West can get a person killed.
But when a gunslinger she once loved rides out of the dust, Clara's fragile peace shatters.
Eli Mercer carries trouble with him the way other men carry scars, and his return brings whispers of violence moving toward Rosewater. As old promises resurface and danger closes in, Clara must face the truth she tried to forget?and decide whether to run from the man who broke her heart or stand her ground when the guns come out.
Set against a harsh frontier where survival demands courage and sacrifice, The Woman at Rosewater Station: She Thought the Past Was Buried is a gripping Western of love, reckoning, and the moment when yesterday refuses to stay dead.
