The Gamble

Agatha was the picture of primness and propriety, but her green eyes could blaze with anger-or sparkle with humor. Scott was the picture of lazy charm and happy indifference to what others thought was right and wrong. They were enemies, then friends. Then the sweet innocence of a child opened their eyes and their hearts-and they were reborn in each otherrsquo;s arms by the soft, wondrous gift of love. In the late 1800s, a southern gambler moves to Proffitt, Kansas, hoping to make a living as a saloonkeeper. But he soon becomes a target of the prohibition movement, led by the enchanting yet volatile Agatha Downing. They are hopeless adversaries--until the innocence of a child opens their eyes and hearts to each other.

  • "Agatha was the picture of propriety--a rarity in the rough and tumble town of Profitt, Kansas in the 1880s. Plain as can be, she would all but have disappeared in her drab surroundings were it not for her emerald green eyes. If anyone could bring out the passion--and anger--in those eyes it was Scott. First enemies, then friends, the two never imagined that the sweet innocence of a child would open their hearts to the wondrous gift of love. When it does, the two face the gamble of their lives."@en
