Penny's Pursuit

Starry Night Novella 2

A friends-to-sweethearts and an almost-missed-opportunity story set near Prescott, Arizona Territory in 1893.


Penny Larson only had eyes for one man, Nathan Cahill, until he moved away. After waiting for him with no word for eight months, she gives up and gives her heart to another man. Weeks before her wedding, her world is turned upside down when her true love shows up on her doorstep. Will she choose to honor her word to her fiancé, or will she choose her childhood friend?


Nathan Cahill finally settles in at his parents’ new ranch, far from his best friend, a woman who stirred his heart. When he learns she is about to marry a stranger, he hops the train to Prescott with the hope he can win her heart and claim her as his wife. But when he arrives, she is angry with him. Did he wait too long? Will she marry the stranger or will Nathan’s love triumph?
