Description de l’éditeur
Leaving her job behind and heading home to Montana for a family emergency is worrisome enough, but when Callie Rankin's New York future collides head-on with her Montana past, she is faced with making a life-, and perhaps, love-altering decision.
When Callie Rankin's father falls critically ill, she returns to her Montana home. Leaving New York, her promotion, and a budding relationship behind, she heads back to the ranch, planning to stay only until she knows her father is out of the woods.
But her homecoming is not entirely welcome. Her relationships with her siblings and stepmother are challenging, which makes coming home even more difficult. When the unthinkable happens and her father dies, Callie rapidly unravels. Then ranch hand, Murphy Reynolds—the boy she left behind a decade ago—reaches out to pick up the pieces.
Murphy Reynolds fell in love with Callie heart and soul the last summer they spent together on the ranch. While coaching her when she raced the barrels, traveling to rodeos in the region, he fell hard and fast. He would have married her in a heartbeat to keep her on the ranch with him forever. The problem was, she couldn't get off the ranch fast enough. College was her excuse—she left and never looked back. Or so it seemed to him.
Now, Callie must not only mourn the loss of her father, but face her past and mend fences with her family and Murphy. Her choices will shape her future. But will that future be with Murphy and her family on the ranch, or back in New York, where her promotion and a rocky relationship wait?
