To escape a ruthless guardian, Lady Charlotte Fairfax steals away to Montreal where she locates Reid McCoy, a fur trader for the North West Company who owes her fiancé a debt for saving his life. Even though European women are forbidden from entering the fur trade, Charlotte is desperate to get to her fiancé deep within the northwestern wilderness and begs Mr. McCoy to take her.

Reid McCoy has worked hard for fifteen years to become a shareholder in the North West Company and is on the brink of realizing that dream. Taking Lady Charlotte into the interior will not only put her life at risk, but it could also cost him his job. Honor bound to repay his debt, his only option is to have Lady Charlotte dress as a man and enter as his assistant clerk.

With Charlotte's guardian close on their trail, and a personal rival willing to do anything to keep Reid from becoming a shareholder, they will embark on an epic journey that will test not only their strength and courage, but their hearts, as well.

Christy Award winner and bestselling author Gabrielle Meyer presents a new and thrilling historical adventure series set in the heart of the North American wilderness.
