The Gilded Lady by Harper St. George

A woman with a secret past and the outlaw hired to protect her wager on love in this novel from Harper St. George’s The Gilded West Series.

Glory Winters owns the infamous Victoria House, the most successful brothel and gaming establishment in Montana. No one would suspect that the independent beauty is actually on the run and hiding in plain sight. When a dark figure emerges from the past she left far behind, threatening everything she holds dear, she turns to the one man who can keep her safe.
Gunslinger Zane Pierce has been not-so-secretly fascinated by the brothel madam ever since he first met her. When she turns to him for help, he’ll risk his very life to keep her safe. But he’s running from his own demons, and if keeping her safe means denying his own heart, then so be it.

As their forbidden passion sparks amidst the glittering wealth of Helena, danger stalks them from the shadows, and Glory and Zane will have to decide if their love is worth the risk.
