Swoon! Romance with a capital "R". He's a heroic outlaw, she's a genteel lady who defends herself when he kidnaps her. But these Wild West dummies can't help falling in love with each other. There's love! Family! Adventure! Secrets! Consent!
Based on the setting and the publication date, I expected dubious consent (or worse), but found a love story and I guess I love Westerns now?!?!

Minor: Sexual assault
Content warning: off-page sexual assault of a minor (the reason our hero has become an outlaw)
