In 1888 Utah, young Wil Halladay falls hard for the beautiful, spirited Laura at a Marysvale dance. They marry and homestead the wild canyon country near Bryce, where Wil becomes a deputy marshal. But a rustler's frame-up, prison time, and a betrayal at home set in motion a tragedy that will cast long shadows over everyone he loves. A frontier love story told in the deputy's own voice. Rooted in real southern Utah settlement history near Bryce Canyon and Robbers Roost. Told as a genuine family manuscript passed down through generations—memoir meets Western. A clean, emotionally powerful story of love, betrayal, vengeance, and forgiveness. “Love is hard to figure. You can't make it happen, and you can't make it go away.” Perfect for a reader who loves clean frontier love stories and Old West history, especially Utah pioneer settings and outlaw lore. Show more
