About this series
Laramie, Wyoming Territory, Summer of 1888
The stagecoach line from Laramie to Centennial is going to be closed, anticipating the building by Union Pacific of a railroad branch to this small town in the Medicine Bow Mountains.
The last stagecoach is attacked by robbers. Deputy Sheriff Orville Maitland riding shotgun, jumps down and holds off the attackers, while the stagecoach turns back to Laramie.
Sheriff Bill Monroe is bound to see this last stagecoach get to the mining town of Centennial and he wants to search for his deputy. Being aware of the risk to be attacked again, the passengers are determined to travel again. The sheriff has in his charge a variety of characters, a banker carrying the miners' payroll, a pastor, a gambler very fast with a gun, a flamboyant singer, with secrets of her own.
Add to this the mail-order-bride of the deputy, freshly arrived from Baltimore, who has no idea what dangers are in the west, but insists stubbornly to go and rescue her future groom, that she'd never seen in her life.
What the sheriff hopes to be a short thirty-five mile drive turns into a longer adventure for all of them.
Historical Note – Medicine Bow Mountains were the only local source of timber for the Union Pacific railroad while it advanced west through south Wyoming. The company promised to build a branch to Centennial, since 1868 when the railroad had reached Laramie.
It didn't happen until 1907. Until then, the stagecoach line was bought and operated by Augustus Trabing, a businessman from Laramie, who owned three stagecoach lines, to Centennial, Syblee, and Walden, Colorado. He also owned a large ranch, twenty miles north of Laramie, and a retail and wholesale store Trabing Commercial Company at the corner of Garfield and Second South Street in Laramie.

Vivian Sinclair
Vivian Sinclair always enjoyed dreaming up stories. When she had time in her busy life, she used to disappear with her laptop to write. Her family often found her in her office immersed in the world of fiction. And because a good dream should be a happy one, all her books have happy-endings. She was a pioneer of e-publishing. Her first book, a contemporary romance, was e-published in 1997 under a different pen name. Vivian is a prolific author with a rich imagination and in addition to romances enjoys writing women’s fiction and westerns, both contemporary and historical. After years of moving from the East Coast to the Midwest and then to the Pacific Northwest, after traveling all over the United States, Vivian settled in the Seattle area, where she lives with her husband and her daughter.
