Frontier Flames

Albuquerque, New Mexico, 1913. In a town divided between the respectable and the forgotten, two souls find each other again.

Scarlet survives by staying invisible. Behind the red silk and practiced smile of the Red Lantern saloon, she is Alice Wilder, a woman who traded her name for a roof and her dreams for a wage. She knows better than to hope for more.

Henry McCoy has returned home from the East with a law degree, his father's expectations, and a certainty that he can fix what is broken in this town without breaking anyone in the process. He is wrong about at least one of those things.

When Henry walks into the Red Lantern and their eyes meet across a smoke-filled room, something ancient stirs. A flash of ink-stained fingers. A courtyard neither of them has ever visited. The unsettling certainty that this is not the first time they have failed each other.

Now Henry is tasked with drafting the ordinances that could close Scarlet's world forever, while she must decide whether to fight for the only life she knows or trust that something better is waiting on the other side of loss. With a council hearing bearing down and a town that has already decided what they are worth, Scarlet and Henry are forced to choose: the paths the world has laid out for them, or the harder, truer road of becoming who they were always meant to be.

Frontier Flames is the ninth volume in the Journey Through Time: A Twin Flame Saga series, a sweeping historical spiritual romance tracing two souls across lifetimes. Each volume stands alone.
