This book is a direct continuation of the previous one. It starts exactly after the last chapter of Vol. 1. I highly recommend at least reading the last chapter of A Rifle and a Rose - Vol. 1 first. Anyway, enjoy!

Our childhoods are sacred, and their reminiscent memories warm our hearts even in the coldest of times. For James Mark though, this isn't so. His childhood has been nothing but a distant father and a heartless mother. Despite this, there has always been one thing that he has kept going for: his best friend, Henry O'Brien. So, when he finds himself falling in love with Henry, he must do everything he can to protect their relationship because it's all he has. This proves increasingly difficult since, in a time like the 1890s, too many people are looking to tear them apart. To make matters worse, Henry doesn't seem to want to resist these attacks either, so James is forced to watch as their blossoming love is shot to pieces by toxic religiousness and long-held grudges.
But then, after almost twenty years, the two childhood sweethearts meet once again in the middle of a war-torn America. This time, they're both adults who live without the restrictions of judgemental incursions on their private lives, and the only thing keeping them apart now is each other. However, the divide of their pasts has become all too clear.
Is it possible that love still exists between the two as James hopes, or did that rose die years before they ever even had a chance to let it grow?
