Love on a Train
Although Josie Salinger has been working with her sisters, Adelaide, Sadie, and Belinda at the private investigation agency their uncle left to them, she had never played a major role in any of their cases. She has always preferred to stay out of the spotlight. In 1849, it wasn’t common for women to do such jobs. Her sisters object to that opinion and push her to begin a new journey. Little does Josie know that when she opened the door to Taylor Jameson that crisp fall day, she was about to begin the adventure of a lifetime.
Taylor Jameson has been receiving threatening letters. The letters started three months after the murder of his wife, an unsolved case that seemed to be getting nowhere. The lawmen in charge of the case see no correlation between the letters and the murder and therefore will not investigate further into it. The most recent letter was the last straw and Taylor decided it was time to take matters into his own hands. Would consulting an all-female detective agency be the right move? Despite popular opinion of the time, Taylor decides to take a chance on the women.
Little do Josie and Taylor know that the case that draws them together is just the beginning of a bright future as the two fall in love, bonding through the danger and fear. Will the murderers catch up to them before they have a chance to express how they feel? Or will they triumph and love each other till the very end?
