Gilded Frontier

Two Worlds Apart, Part One

Gilded Frontier: Part One introduces the sweeping tale of Evelyn Harcourt — a woman born to privilege in Victorian London but bound by the sins of her father’s name. When her journey carries her across the ocean to the raw edges of the American West, she finds herself in a town divided by fear, vengeance, and fire.

Determined not to kneel before shadows of the past, Evelyn speaks a vow that will change everything: Stand. Do not kneel. Her words ignite Ashford Crossing, drawing both loyalty and hatred, and placing her at the center of a battle that stretches beyond one family’s feud. In the dust and fire, her resolve is tested against guns, betrayal, and the growing weight of her own legend.

This is the first part of a two-part saga — a story of love, crime, and survival that crosses oceans and collides worlds. Part One ends where the fire begins, with Ashford Crossing bracing for the storm. The conclusion awaits in Part Two, where Evelyn’s vow must face its greatest trial.

For readers of sweeping historical drama and frontier romance, Gilded Frontier is both intimate and epic — a tale of a woman who dares to stand when silence would have been safer.
