The Gambler's Last Bet: A Christian Historical Frontier Romance - The Circuit Rider Series (Book 1) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Caleb was precisely the sort of man Clara knew she shouldn’t allow herself to care for. Yet somehow, the more she tried to guard her heart, the more determined it seemed to have a mind of its own...He’d wagered money more times than he could count. But he’d never expected the preacher’s daughter to become the winning hand he never saw coming.

Caleb Hayes has built his life around the turn of a card and the thrill of a winning hand. Charming, confident, and always ready for the next game, he has little interest in changing his ways—unaware that his gambling leaves his sister carrying more of life’s burdens than she should.

Then a traveling circuit rider and his daughter arrive in town.

Caleb attends the camp meeting expecting little more than entertainment, but Reverend William Dawson's testimony strikes closer to home than Caleb cares to admit. And Clara Dawson—the preacher's gentle but spirited daughter—proves even harder to dismiss.

When unexpected danger places Clara’s life in Caleb’s hands, the gambler she should have every reason to avoid becomes the man she can’t quite forget. And with Clara’s matchmaking uncle seemingly determined to push the two together at every opportunity, avoiding one another becomes increasingly difficult.

The more their paths cross, the more Caleb finds himself questioning the life he’s always known—and wondering whether a man with his past could ever become worthy of a woman like Clara.

For a man accustomed to betting on cards, walking away from his old life may be the greatest gamble he’s ever taken.
