Headstrong Katie is desperate to escape her tyrannical father and when the unlikely opportunity presents itself, it is too late for her to escape her father's wicked scheme. Without warning, she finds herself dropped into a brothel in Dodge City where she remains her father's hostage. Met by happenstance, the incredibly handsome and charismatic Phillip Lawson offers Katie the means to better her life and flee her father's clutches for good. After a whirlwind courtship and a fairy tale wedding she is whisked off to a remote ranch in Colorado where she soon discovers that her married life is nothing like she's been led to believe it would be.

A virtual prisoner in her new home, Katie is cast into a household rife with unforeseeable danger and sinister secrets that she must unlock to save herself. Rich in historic detail, "Katie" is the remarkable story of one woman's fight to find the life and love she deserves.

As a result it is a novel whose very existence as an independent text has been ignored, and which has not been published until now. The First 'Women in Love' shares much of its material with Women in Love, but its central relationships are dissimilar, and the ending radically different.
