Zack hates. He hates Aiden for sticking by him, hates Max for still being the confident bastard he was at school. Most of all he hates himself for not dying along with a one-night stand. Max Knowles watches the woman he introduced to the life putting on her "happy hooker" face as one by one, her girls get their happy ever afters. Every day, her smile gets a little more strained, and his heart breaks a little more. The solution is clear, but will the cost of putting permanent smiles back on the faces of people he cares about be the loss of the woman he loves?

From multi-award-winning author, Linda Watkins, comes a story of two women, from different walks of life, and the one dog who loved them both. A feature writer for the Boston Globe, Sarah Palmer had it all – a beautiful apartment, a great job, and a family she adored. A thousand miles away, Mindy Sue Watson didn’t have it so good. Trapped in a marriage to an abusive alcoholic, her only pleasure was in tossing a ball to a skinny dog she’d adopted from the local shelter.

When Maggie McTigg's brother Michael went off to fight in World War II, he left his taxicab company in her hands. As the only member of the family with a lick of business sense, he asked her to keep it running while he was gone. Maggie took it as a sacred trust, her own contribution to the war efforts, and resolved that it would still be operating when the conflict was over and he finally returned home—no matter what it took and what she had to do. Just how far will a woman go to keep her soldier brother's heritage alive for him until a war is over?

Kidnapped at 16, Maggie O’Bannen returns home after seven years to be reunited with her father. No longer the idealistic girl she once was, her return is meant to help put her demons to rest. Instead, it sets in motion a series of events that will put her on a collision course with trouble, and this time, Maggie has no qualms about speeding towards it. Discovering who was behind her abduction is just the beginning. Murder with no apparent motive and no suspect soon brings her under the scrutiny of the local sheriff.

Kidnapped at the age of 16, Maggie survived the fickle temper of notorious outlaw Mad Dog Frank O’Bannen for seven years. Now, he is dead, and she is about to find out that there are worse ways to live and die than as the wife of a wanted man. Frank had prepared her as best he could for what would follow, and when she leaves her prison in the hills, she has the blood of three men on her hands and knows the feel of hot lead. Maggie has Frank’s gun, her keen wits, and new friends to help her, but will they be enough to save her from the brutality of a maniac bent on revenge?
