Madeline: The Outlaw's Redemption
This fiery redhead will defy her family to be with the man she loves…
On the verge of an engagement to Samuel Hardy, Madeline Ashton is a carefree young woman with the world at her feet. It’s not until her father arrests the notorious “Gentleman Bandit” that she meets Jared Stott, staring at the handsome outlaw through the bars of a jail cell.
Having come to the Colorado Territory to find a wife and open a shop, Jared Stott is stunned to be arrested, having been implicated in a series of robberies he did not commit. Being the identical brother of a bank robber, no one believes his innocence, except the beautiful redhead, whose father happens to be a lawman.
Surviving the hangman’s noose is only the beginning of Jared Stott’s troubles, because Madeline’s family is firmly against him. To compound matters, he is saddled with his brother’s wife and child, a burden worsened by the woman’s drinking. The only glimmer of light on the horizon is Madeline, who is steadfast in her love for him and her faith in the Lord, hoping that one day they can be together.

Book Five in the Brides of the Rockies series
Another favorite - I absolutely loved the young woman with so much strength and courage, Madeline...she fought for what she believed was right, and actually saved the life of the young man that was mistaken for his outlaw twin brother.
Jared was thrown into jail as soon as he came to town, looking to buy property and start his own business. However, the wanted poster for his twin who was infamous as a robber and murderer, got the law caught up in thinking they'd caught a major outlaw. Just so happens Madeline heard him try to convince her father's men that it was his brother, not him, who was the outlaw. No one believed him. She did.
This story has several twists and turns and other characters that are well developed, and makes this one of the best historical short novels that I've read.

Quite fetching
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. The characters are likable and the passion is tangible. However, I found it a lot more immodest than other Christian romances I've read.
