The Prodigal Liar
When Easterner Hope Deering visits her uncle's Western ranch expecting romance and adventure, her uncle persuades his friend Percival "Monte" Edwards to pose as a notorious outlaw. Monte moves into the fugitive's hideout and charms Hope with tall tales of his supposed crimes, sparking a whirlwind romance—until the real outlaw escapes from jail, turning their harmless ruse into real danger.
