From Booklist
Osborne's nineteenth-century American romance is more traditionally romantic. Wealthy young Juliette March is searching for her missing husband. When she stops at an inn run by Clara Klaus, she discovers that the robust German is wearing a wedding ring identical to hers, and indeed, they've married the same scoundrel. They head north and discover that he has joined the Klondike gold rush and married a third woman, Zoe Wilder. Intent on revenge, the three continue the grueling search together, experiencing the hardships of seasickness and a trek across Alaska and Canada. Each young woman discerns her own unique strengths and inner resources along the way and meets her ideal mate. Osborne, a multiple romance-award winner, effectively portrays endearing heroines, sexily heroic heroes, and tastefully erotic encounters.

Product Description
A rich, proper spinster aching for a man's touch, Juliette March is an easy target for the seductive Jean Jacques Villette. When he disappears with her inheritance after their wedding, Juliette sets out to find the scoundrel. She never expects to meet Clara Klaus, who ran a boardinghouse until Jean Jacques swept her off her feet, then swept himself out of town.
While following the trail of their no-good husband, Clara and Juliette run into Zoe Wilder, another victim of the debonair Jean Jacques. Now Juliette's ready to put a bullet in his cheating heart. When these three vengeful ladies embark on a misbegotten quest to Alaska, things get downright dangerous--especially for the unsuspecting men they entice along the way. . . .
