New York Times bestselling author Catherine Anderson lights up the Old West with a new tale of love, danger, and redemption. After breaking off thier engagement, Eden Paxtons fiance spreads so many rumors about her that she is forced to leave San Francisco. Her pride bruised, an angry Eden heads for the wilds of Colorado to live with her half brothers. But murderous outlaws cut the trip short when they kidnap her, intending to sell her across the Mexican border. Ever since a gang murdered his wife, Matthew Coulter cannot see a woman being mistreated without vowing to rescue her--and exacting vengeance against the evildoers. So when he spots Eden with the ruffians, Matthew takes fierce, focused action to save her. As Eden and Matthew run for their lives, she recognizes a kind heart beneath Matthews rugged exterior. But she wonders which will win out: his obsession with revenge--or their growing passion for each other.

Years ago, when Keegans Lady was published, the book was supposed to have been dedicated to my great-niece, Wendy, who was my inspiration when I created the character Caitlin OShannessy. Sadly, my mother passed away, and at the last minute I changed my mind, dedicating Keegans Lady to her instead. Wendy understood, and I assured her that Eden Paxtons love story would be dedicated to her. At the time, I had no idea that I would get locked into writing contemporary novels for so long! Now, finally, Eden Paxton is making her appearance in Early Dawn, and my wonderful great-niece is getting the promised dedication.
This book is dedicated to Wendy, who has
brightened our lives with her gorgeous red hair,
laughing blue eyes, indomitable spirit, and
most wondrous of all, her baby boy, Lucas.

Prologue
June 1887
Matthew Coulter awakened to a soft hissing sound, the faint smell of kerosene, and the dim glow of lantern light. A nearly blinding pain knifed from his left eyebrow into his temple, and as he struggled to focus he was filled with a terrible sense of dread. When his eyes had adjusted, he realized that he was abed in his childhood sleeping nook, a rectangular space with rough plank walls that was barely large enough to hold a cot, battered dresser, and small wardrobe. Strange. Hed been married five years ago and hadnt stayed overnight at his folks place since. But there was no mistake. The familiar scent of his mothers Irish stew drifted in from the kitchen to tease his nostrils, the air redolent with pan-browned lamb chops simmered to perfection, and the unmistakable fragrance of thyme, a spice his wife, Olivia, seldom used.
Matthew yearned to slip back into the darkness of sleep that had so recently enveloped him, but that niggling sense of dread grew stronger as he came more awake. Something was wrong, horribly wrong, but his head hurt so badly that he couldnt remember what.
Ma? he croaked, and pushed up onto one elbow with a low groan because a sharp stitch in his side nearly took his breath away.
The room spun around him, the shadows that lurked beyond the sphere of light seeming to dance and sway. He wrapped a hand over the mattress edge to keep from pitching off onto the floor. What in Sam Hill? It felt as if every bone in his body had been broken, and the pain in his temple throbbed with each beat of his heart.
Ma!
A blurry female figure dressed in blue appeared in the archway. Matthew! Thank God! The lilt of her faint Irish brogue was as familiar to Matthew as his own voice. We were starting to think you might never wake up.
Matthew lay back against the pillow and closed his eyes as his mother sat beside him and placed a cool, soothing hand on his right cheek. The gesture reminded him of the early days of his childhood, when shed checked him for fever or fussed over him when he was sick. He let himself enjoy the sensation for a moment before prying his eyes open again to fix his gaze on her face. Even at fifty-six, Hattie Coulter was a lovely woman, with black hair and eyes the deep blue of a summer sky. The years had lined her skin, but on her the traces of age were like the tiny cracks on the surface of an old oil painting, only adding to its beauty.
