Summary: Ember Ridgeway is a vivacious, pampered niece of railroad rycoon Mack Ridgeway. Orphaned at a young age, Ember's struggle for identity in a world of greed leaves her feeling empty and alone. But then Tavish Wilder enters her life, and Ember's dreams began to include the one thing her uncle's money can't buy. Tavish Wilders driving ambition is to rise up as a powerful timber baron in the Northwest teritories. But life in the train camps is a world away from his dreams, and the road to success is riddled with treachery. Mack Ridgeway is determined to climb his way to the top of the Northern Pacific railroad--no matter what the cost. With his sone by his side, he plans to rule the Northwest and rid the rich timberland of any who would stand in his way.
