Can the worst of enemies find friendship or even love?

Newly-hired companion April Stringham steps off the train in 1890s Los Angeles expecting to find wild Indians, cattle drives, cowboys, saloon girls, bandits and shootouts on every corner, just as her dime novels guaranteed. A confirmed old maid, April has nowhere to go should her new job be less than imagined. There would be no turning back.

Successful attorney Noah Chandler is about to marry the girl of his dreams. His youthful fiancé might be beautiful and rich, but it's her family's business contacts that make her a prize beyond compare.

Disgusted by Noah's string of broken engagements and adamantly opposed to his current marital plans, Lula Chandler has all but given up on her only son. After all, it's hard to stand by and do nothing while a child ruins his life. Lula soon finds a true friend and conspirator in April. Noah's life is about to be turned on end.

Enjoy a beach holiday in Gilded Age Los Angeles. Return to baseball as it used to be played. Grab a pan and look for gold in Placerita Canyon, site of the original California gold strike. Find out what life was like in Los Angeles' first suburb.
