U.S. Marshal Chase Reynolds is on a mission--to track down an escaped train robber, even if it takes him into the wilds of Canada! Hot on the outlaw's trail, he follows him into the Canadian West--and encounters more than he bargained for when he's taken prisoner by a beautiful woman.
Sara Cranston is trying to hold on to her ranch that a band of outlaws is determined to steal from her. A woman alone, she's "easy pickin's"--and this ruthless crew is after more than the ranch--there's a legend of buried gold hidden somewhere on her land.
Sara and Chase have a shared past--one that is full of lies and secrets...and love. Seventeen years have gone by, and the passion is still there between them--but will deceit and mistrust keep them from the happiness they both crave?
Chase has a duty to bring in the outlaws, but now he must work fast to do it before they murder the woman he loves. Can he convince her the future is still theirs for the taking if they only survive to enjoy it? Anything can happen BENEATH A HORSE-THIEF MOON...
I loved this heartwarming adventure from talented debut author Elizabeth Clements.

About the Author: Elizabeth Clements has had a love affair with books ever since she learned to read. Saturday night trips into town included a visit with the librarian, sharing popcorn with her and her orange tabby, and going home with an armload of books. Gradually the books progressed to juvenile and teenage detectives, then in her later teens, she discovered Frank Yerby's historicals and a life-long love of historical romance books began.
Always excelling in English, she was the editor of her high school newspaper and wanted to become a reporter. There were no openings at the weekly newspaper, so she moved to Calgary and went to secretarial college, a profession that has benefited her all her life. At twenty, she married Doug, the love of her life and months later they moved to Germany for Doug's five-year tour. And there she finally wandered through her first castle! One of several.
Although she has written poems and short stories that are published in several anthologies, Elizabeth's first novel plot came to her in the middle of cooking breakfast eggs for her four young sons. Then several books later, she fell in love with Garth Brooks' song, That Summer, and the current Prairie Moon Trilogy was born. At a romance writers conference in Calgary, Beneath A Horse-Thief Moon won the Reader's Choice Award. Although there were gaps in her writing years when life intervened, she never lost sight of her dream of publishing books set in all ten Canadian provinces and the Yukon.
Thanks to Prairie Rose Publications, that dream is now coming true.
