Providence (The Midnight Gang Trilogy #2)

You fall in love with a sinner and there’s two ways it can go...

Left to fend for himself as a young boy, Aiden has lived most of his life with little to call his own and little say in what comes next. But when his latest job working as a cattle driver for a wealthy rancher turns bad, he makes the deal that he hopes will give him a chance at a new start. All he has to do is spend the next week making sure nothing and no one causes his employer’s luck to run dry at the card table. Then he’s free.

Except in this bustling Texas town, Aiden finds far more than he bargained for once he encounters a charismatic gambler named Cypress, an apparent thief who seems far more interested in getting under Aiden’s skin than he does in playing the cards he’s been dealt.

The more Aiden learns about his illusive adversary, the more he’ll be forced to question if the promises he made are the right ones or if perhaps the one path he never saw for himself is the one worth taking—no matter where the road leads.

Set nine years before Adversity’s events, this Wild West romance tells the story of how certain enemies became unlikely allies willing to bet everything on each other.
