Publisher's Synopsis
Twice divorced and reliant on her weekly appointments with her therapist, Cristie is a complicated fifty year old who is in for the ride of her life. Making her own schedule as an independent courier, her latest client needs a car part picked up in Laughlin, giving her the opportunity to enjoy a little break from her routine single life in Tucson. While she more than over packs for her two day car trip, she definitely was not prepared for the fate that awaited her at the Gateway.
Fall back in time with Cristie to the year 1852 when the Gateway Casino and Laughlin, Nevada didn't exist, but an entire melting pot of travelers from every corner of the globe came and went following the California Gold Rush years. Stranded with the man from her recent wild dreams, her world changes in the blink of an eye and she's forced to adjust her habitual ways. In a time where the material items she can't live without don't exist yet, her stay at the Gateway isn't the mini vacation she was hoping it might be. However, it just might end up being the only place where she not only relaxes, but truly fits in.
