    Summary

    In 1878, Wallace A. Murphy was hopelessly lost, starving, and delirious when he stumbled into a valley full of pink flower buds. In desperation he ate them, and discovered their near-miraculous curative powers. Pink Glories, journalists called them, and overnight they became as valuable as gold.

    That same year, Rukia's heart broke. When the time came, she quietly acquiesced to the marriage her brother arranged for her. Now, six months after she became a bride, she's a widow, stranded in a slowly dying town.

    Three years ago Ichigo Kurosaki went west to make a life for himself. Cowboy, railroad worker, bounty hunter, farmer, guard for hire: he's done it all. When Kisuke Urahara gives him a job escorting a grieving widow from Mechanicsville to Denison, he considers it a cushy job.

    Until he meets the widow, and comes face to face with the woman he loves. The woman he could never forget.

    Stories of the miracle of the Pink Glories spread more quickly than this warning: Stay away from the mature flowers. They'll make a man go mad. But they might just give a pair of broken hearts a second chance.
