Golden Promise of Cripple Creek
Time-Travel Romance Set in the Heart of Colorado’s Gold Rush Wars, The Golden Promise of Cripple Creek by Mary Ellen Johnson
When her political fiance dumps her, social media influencer Maeve Mooney retreats to her family ranch—only to tumble down an abandoned mine shaft and straight into 1901 Cripple Creek, Colorado.
It's a world of glittering wealth, gritty saloons, and a brutal battle between miners and powerful mine owners. Using her piano skills to mingle with the towns elite, Maeve soon crosses paths with Ronan Doyle, a rugged union leader immune to her charms and consumed by the fight for justice.
As strikes erupt into violence and martial law descends, Maeve faces an impossible choice: return to her own time—or risk everything to stand beside the man she loves in a past that could destroy them both. But Maeve Mooney has never been one to accept defeat not in love, not in life, and certainly not across time itself.
