I thought this was pretty good! Different than "most" historicals, this was set in Canada and the hero Zach is a Mountie about to marry Dr. Virginia Waters. Just before marrying her a train he is on is bombed and he is injured. But just before he is injured someone from behind tells him to "watch out for his pretty new bride". So being the typical male, he calls off the wedding, humiliating her (this is the 2nd time she has been dumped) all in the name of saving her from the bad guys. She doesn't take it too well and tries to leave town only to be shot at later in the day. Zach ends up having to be her guard while they catch the killers after them.

It was quite good especially when I do not care for historical fiction. It did have some good adventure in it too.

Back Cover:

"JILTED!

It was a humiliation no bride should bear, but Dr. Virginia Waters had survived it. Now she anxiously awaited her wedding to Zack Bullock, brother of her former fiance. But could this renowned and rugged Mountie make her forget her girlhood crush--and find her womanhood in his arms?

Inspector Zack Bullock vowed to do the honorable thing and take Virgina Waters to wife. Marrying his brother's cast-off bride would neatly serve family obligations with no emotional upheaval for anyone. But the gangly girl he remembered from childhood had blossomed into a stunning, exemplary woman, one he desired more than anything--and a looming danger threatened to keep them apart forever!"
