The Mrs. Tabor
Autor Kimberly Burnsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 sep 2026
Every era has its notorious beauty. In the 1880s, it's Baby Doe-a woman who knows that wealth and power don't come easily, especially for someone like her. While proper ladies cling to their virtue and struggle to survive, Baby Doe chooses a different path: marrying a rich man.
She follows the rush to Colorado's silver boom and catches the wandering eye of millionaire mine owner Horace Tabor. As his glamorous mistress, she revels in untold luxury... but Tabor's wife and business allies have no intention of letting her take his name-or his fortune-without a fight. Undeterred, Baby Doe is ready to play the long game, scheming her way from the shadows into the spotlight.
But when fortune turns, and the silver empire crumbles, Baby Doe is left to face the devastating cost of ambition. Will she rise from the wreckage, or will the price of being The Mrs. Tabor prove too steep?
Based on a true story, The Mrs. Tabor is a dazzling tale of love, betrayal, and the high stakes of chasing fortune in the Wild West.

The book won numerous awards including the Western Fictioneers Peacemaker Award for Best New Novel, a gold medal for Best Regional Fiction from the Independent Publisher Book Awards, a National Indie Excellence Award, and a silver medal from the Colorado Independent Publishers Association EVVY Awards. Her second novel, The Redemption of Mattie Silks, was a CIBA Laramie Award finalist, a Western Writers of America Spur Award finalist, and a Colorado Indie Publishers gold medal winner.Kimberly earned degrees from the University of Colorado and the University of Hartford.
