⚤ Jack Fowler and Abigail Stone

⚣ Elijah Harris and Travis Reed

Tropes: partners to lovers, forbidden love, mutual pining with denial, calm x angry, hurt/comfort

Relationship: Having fled his marriage due to feelings of inadequacy, Elijah Harris finds himself running with the same gang as his father. There, he meets Travis Reed, an angry attack dog whose gruff exterior seems impenetrable. Elijah proves to have a calming effect on Travis, so they're partnered together. And for better or worse, they see the ugliest parts of each other they never revealed to anyone else.

⚤ Caroline Reed and Jeremiah Roth

Tropes: slow burn, childhood connection, the one that got away, learning to trust again, the survivor and the protector

Relationship: Jeremiah Roth was just a boy when he saved a pair of children from scavenging wolves following a bandit attack on their wagon train. That was the first time he met Caroline Reed. But he was run out of town a few years later for getting into trouble one too many times. Now reunited, so much has changed—except for the inexplicable drive the rogue has to keep her safe from harm.

⚢ Winnie May Armstrong and Lorena Fowler

Tropes: 'I can fix her', ride or die, opposite sides of a conflict, established past relationship, relationship revolving door (off and on again)

Relationship: Winnie May Armstrong and Lorena Fowler clash in all ways except for their unshakable desire to be at each other's side. Circumstances—namely, their opposing outlooks on the world—make this difficult. Betrayal is always just around the corner. But one thing is for certain: when it truly matters, they would fight against God himself to come to each others' aid.

⚤ Lily St. John and Nash Majors

Tropes: forced proximity, sunshine x grumpy, reluctant partners in crime (one-sided), mutual quest for vengeance, healing each other/together

Relationship: Son of a corrupt Marshal, Nash Majors is on a mission to uncover family secrets and pick up his father's slack; the outlaw he's hunting is the same who wronged Lily St. John's family. Ordinarily the path Nash walks is a solitary one, but Lily, the daughter of moonshiners, sticks to the former deputy like glue. And she won't be taking 'no' for an answer.
