Nadeen was a young woman who enjoyed adventure, as long as she was able to do what she pleased. Her father was a man much like her, and he was going to obtain what he desired through her marriage to a gentleman from New York Riley Donovan. He looked and acted like a gentleman in the east, but how would he be when he got what he wanted in a wife and all the money he wanted?
Riley Donovan was an egotistical man, with a less-than-gentlemanly outlook in life and love. He wanted what he wanted when he wanted it. Would it serve his purpose or bring his downfall? Only time will tell.
Travis was a true gentleman. He also had adventure on his mind. He was planning on building a mill in the new state of Oregon. He had planned and worked and saved for this for quite a while and was anxious to get started, hopefully with the love and understanding of his father.
