Her Hidden Truth

A Clean Historical Western Romance

A woman ready for a new beginning.
A man bound by duty and order.
And a danger hiding behind the bright lights of the circus.

After years spent caring for her ailing father, Carolina Birmingham is left with little more than her independence, and a long-held dream. When she spots an advertisement seeking female Pinkerton agents, she knows it’s her chance to step into a future of purpose and courage. Determined and resourceful, Carolina is willing to prove she belongs in a world long dominated by men.

Veteran agent Ned Lewis has no objections to training a woman, nor to the agency’s requirement that partners marry, so long as his new wife can carry her share of the work. Practical, efficient, and focused on results, Ned expects professionalism, not complications of the heart.

When a traveling circus arrives in town, rumors of an assassin surface, threatening the life of a famed performer. With danger concealed behind costumes and spectacle, Ned’s keen investigative instincts and Carolina’s talent for disguise may be the only hope of uncovering the truth before it’s too late.

As secrets unravel and trust grows, Carolina and Ned must decide whether their partnership is merely for the case, or something far deeper.

Because when the curtain falls, it won’t just be justice at stake…but their hearts.
