Summary
Mary Gillis wanted so much more for her life.
Things were so terrible now that she often swore a tornado could rip through her gaudy little life and she would thank it for the briefest excitement. With her days blurring into an endless cycle of doing exactly as expected of her, her life had become the image of a cage she could no longer escape.
When a storm did rip through, it came in the form of a man named Arthur Morgan. A man she should have known would steal her heart.

Summary
As the summer of 1885 breathes its last, oppressive breath, the Van der Linde Gang sets up camp outside a thriving rail town, seeking out new scores before they inevitably move on. When Arthur Morgan is discovered scouting a job by the local mill owner's daughter, Mary Gillis, his world is transformed—in the midst of escalating violence and risk as the gang moves from petty schemes to more brazen endeavors, he finds himself falling in love with her.
In the years that follow their fateful meeting, both Arthur and Mary are forced to reckon with loss, loyalty, the vast difference in the worlds they’ve known, and whether love alone can be enough to overcome the many forces pulling their lives in opposite directions.

What Arthur soon learns is that the ranch is a family business set to pass down to Gillis’ eldest child, Mary, who Arthur takes a liking to. As the duo from two different worlds get closer and closer, Arthur is forced to reflect on where his loyalties lie: can he fight and change for the woman he loves despite all odds, or continue giving in to the outlaw life he has been moulded to fit into?
Or: An interpreted story on how Arthur and Mary met, fell in love and ultimately fell apart.

Summary
**MASS EDIT COMPLETED**
The gang was in a particularly hard spot, and Arthur saw a notice for a ranch hand job in town, owned by some wealthy family. Arthur figured he could do the job, maybe rob them in the process.
One bright and warm summer day, Arthur looked up from his work to wipe the sweat from his brow and noticed someone sitting on the back steps of the large ranch house.
It was a girl. Arthur squinted in the bright sun, adjusting his leather hat on his head. She was wearing a fancy-looking dress and had a book in her hand. Her figure was small, curled into herself. Her brown hair blew in the breeze, and he saw her reach up in an attempt to tuck a strand behind her ear, only for it to blow out again.
She was awfully pretty, even from afar.Bookmarked by CatatonicDragon
