The Story

Frisco, Utah ยท 1884

Embark on a thrilling journey across the untamed American frontier with Lily Clara. Her letters chronicle daring escapades, encounters with outlaws, and a quest for justice in the rugged Wild West. When spirited dressmaker Lily Clara Moore answers a matrimonial ad, she heads west for an adventure that quickly turns out to be more than she bargained for. The year is 1884, and a little town in the western United States has found itself the destination spot for cowboys, prospectors, and outlaws. Welcome to Frisco, Utah, home to the newly discovered Horn Silver Mine, the most lucrative silver mine in the world. But there's a scandal afoot in Frisco, one that could bring down the entire Horn Silver Mine, and Lily Clara finds herself at the center of it. The only thing that can save her is her own tenacity and the letters she's been exchanging with a very handsome Pinkerton agent Matthew Hickman. Set in the anything-goes, rip-roaring Old West, the Lily Clara series is big on adventure, intrigue, and of course, unforgettable romance. Throw in an outlaw chase, a vengeful vigilante, and a good old-fashioned Spanish treasure hunt, and the Lily Clara Collection is a wild western like no other!
